Not everyone believes in angels.
But many believe there’s something after this life. Or ask for help from what they call a “guardian angel” or what I call a “spirit guide”
If angels exist, I’m not sure they’re flapping feathery wings up above. It’s a lovely image, though: an ancient and effective metaphor to indicate they come from above and travel up and down. But maybe not meant literally.
In modern spiritual thought, “spirit guides” are those who serve the purpose as guide and guardian angel. And many people believe they’ve been in touch with their own spirit guides. Some people think that’s a connection to their higher self.
Some people I work with have instant access–they’re able to connect with their guide(s) at will.
Me? Not so much. It takes some kind of spiritual connection technique for me to tune into mine. It doesn’t just happen whenever I want it to.
That’s one of the things a guided after-death communication does for me: it puts me in touch with those on the other side: my family, friends, and yes, even my guides.
Maybe you’d like to do that, yourself? I can guide you in that service via Skype (see link just above) or help you make other spiritual connections.
You may find it difficult to believe, but Skype is as effective and usually MORE effective than in-person services.There’s nothing magic about being there in person because it’s all energy.
I’d love to talk to you about it. Carol (at) ahealingspirit.org
Hi Carol! I believe we ALL have a higher Inner Being regardless of whether we call it an angel or “Angela!” The challenge, of course, is recognizing it and then remembering to listen to it…oh, and trust that it is always guiding us to our highest good. Good for you for developing a way for others to do that. It is a remarkable way to live our lives well. ~Kathy

I am always looking for signs from my parents who have passed and need to know if there is an afterlife. I have yet to get any definite proof of an afterlife and this makes me sad.

I used to talk with my spirit guides every day. I stopped for some reason and now I wonder why I stopped. Thanks for the reminder.
I have to admit I sometimes call on people I have loved and lost in times I find hard and I don’t know if it’s them who answer or my subconscious but I’ve had some interesting dreams after.

Oh, that’s a deep subject and a personal one at that. My son is in heaven and I do talk to him.
I definitely believe in a higher spirit and how our inner selves are being guided! Your perspective is very inspiring!

I don’t know if I would call them angels, but I definitely make pleas and send prayers in my times of need. It is comforting to think that someone is hearing me.

No, I don’t believe we can communicate with angels. I respect others opinions though.

I think it is important that we each are able to believe in a higher power that is larger than us. I enjoyed your post and appreciate hearing how you are able to cope in your times of need.

I think whatever we call it, there are higher spirits that help us whenever we ask for them.

I believe in guardian angels/spirit guides. I believe that there is one assigned even before we are born. I wish I get to know mine.
Pretty sure family members who have gone on before me are looking out for me here on earth. I talk to my mom all the time as if she is still with us.

I find that explaining death to children is where you often have to find your voice of what you believe in; I had to recently tell my youngest that while some recently passed family members were dead he could still feel their love in his heart.
I call on Jesus Christ daily. It really helps me to make sure my mind is in the right place and makes me feel like my priorities are in place. If things end up going south, I know I’ll only be given what I can handle.
I like to think back to the people I have lost and try and ask for their help in guidance. I’ve never thought about calling out angels though. Sounds interesting.
Always… and even sometimes when I just want to say hi. I have some pretty special people who are angels.

I absolutely do call on angels in times of needs. I believe that there is always someone listening.
I don’t call on angels but I do call on God. I think He sends guardian angels to protect us in times of need.
It varies for everyone for sure, but I bet each person calls on something — no matter if it’s spiritual or not. 🙂 It really helps!
