My belief in Angels really hinges on my belief about why we are here. I believe we are here to grow and learn as human beings, through all the **** and it would be easy to say I am saying that because I haven't had any but I have and I have grown a better person as a result of it. Guardian Angels are not there to stop us making mistakes. If we were prevented from making any mistakes how would we grow as people and become better? I actually think guardian angels and spirit guides stay in the background most of the time. However, I think there are certain tests that are predetermined in our life and at these critical moments this is where or guides or angels step in, to try and subtly suggest to us to go in one direction EVEN if that is the direction of, for example, a terminal illness, because they know that ultimately through all the pain we may (I stress 'may' because we still all have free will) learn a valuable lesson.
However if you are sitting there, as you say "in inner turmoil,there is no result...i just trudge along,suffering the whole time,and the situation never gets resolved,gets worse" then that is as Cantando and a couple of others have suggested rather crap for the guides, as all they get is 'LIFE IS RUBBISH! blasted like an impenetrable cloud around you. You may think you are open to them but if you are giving off a cloud of negative thoughts, how can they try and slip a few positive ones in?
I'm sorry if I sound like I'm preaching.
In response to the original question, I once read that guardian angels are beings that have never incarnated, that help warn us of impending accidents etc whereas spirit guides are souls that have been here, they know first-hand what it is like to be here, that is why they can be a relative etc. |
Well i could totally understand that they are not here to prevent us from making mistakes or getting into accidents,because if that WERE true,then where the heck are they every time somebody gets into an accident,do those people just not have angels or what?
So i'll choose to believe that they are not here to prevent us from having bad things happen to us. It just bugs me when i'm reading somewhere else that goes against that. Like i'm currently reading Secrets of Success by Sandra Anne Taylor,and the other day i just read a part where somebody had a strange idea out of the blue to take the long way home,and then later they found out there was a bad accident on the road they normally drive on. So they said that this person's angel saved them from getting into the accident. What REALLY happened?!
