Tuesday, 26th Week in Ordinary Time, 2020

O God, grant that our life may be defended.
By those who watch over us, both angelic and human.
These angels are like a heavenly fender.
A celestial lumen.

Oft times have I doubted their existence.
Many doubt an angel with wings in an annunciation.
But I hope for and crave their assistance.
Do I really have a guardian angel protecting me from agitation.

So I have no idea in reason if you are there.
I just have this feeling, this sense that you might be.
To this I cannot swear.
It’s as mysterious as the one in three.

But as to whether you are at my shoulder.
This I believe more and more as I get older.
