St. Aloysius Gonzaga wrote, "It is better to be a child of God than king of the whole world!"
“Our own guardian angel [is] for each of us like a trustworthy captain commissioned to defend a stronghold against its enemies. Our guardian angel remains alert and watchful lest any foes should capture and occupy the fort of our soul.
These angels are the faithful guards whom the Lord has located on the walls of Jerusalem to keep watch over His flock throughout the night lest the ferocious wolf of hell, who prowls around like a roaring lion seeking for someone to devour, should seize upon our poor souls!”
[St. Aloysius Gonzaga, p.65, Meditations on the Holy Angels]
May God Be Praised.
