Lord My Chef Daily Recipe for the Soul, 02 October 2025 Thursday, Memorial of the Guardian Angels Exodus 23:20-23 <*[[[[>< + ><]]]]*> Matthew 18:1-5, 10
Thank you, most loving God our Father for all your love and care for us in giving us guardian angels.
“See, I am sending an angel before you, to guard you on the way and bring you to the place I have prepared. Be attentive to him and heed his voice… If you heed his voice and carry out all I tell you, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foes” (Exodus 23:20-21, 22).
“And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me. See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father” (Matthew 18:5, 10).
Your words today, O Lord speak of care, of caring for us which is to protect someone and to provide things they need, especially someone who is young or sick or vulnerable like children - and that is exactly who we are!
Forgive us, Jesus for those times when we act great and powerful, not needing you disregarding your angels when we insist on doing things in our own ways.
We pray also, Jesus that we be your guardian angels to others especially the weak and suffering that we may protect them as we also keep them warm and safe always. Amen.
Angel of God my guardian dear to whom God's love commits me here, ever this day (or night), be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.
