I hear angels all the time in my dreams. And I’m sticking with that no matter how many people tell me I’m crazy. Molly, 8
Everybodys got it all wrong. Angels don’t wear halos anymore. I forget why but scientists are working on it. Olive, 9

Angels work for God and watch over kids when God has to go do something else. Mitchell, 7

That is such a nice thing to see before school. Atheism is kind of depressing in my opinion.

Angels and children! There couldn’t be a better way to lift our spirits.
Here is one of my favorite passages about angels (given to those who proclaim the gospel): “And whoso receiveth you, there I will be also, for I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up.” (D&C 84:88)

I agree, Bryon. It’s also a nice thing to see a young man like you caring about such things.

I have to admit it is nice to have a breather sometimes. It is pretty intense out there.

I have to admit I get a little tired of all the Mormon scripture. I could handle it occasionally and skip over it but it has been a bit much lately.

You should just pretend it is just another book we are quoting. I dont think they are boring or anything so I like it. It has good advise at least. I do think we should not over do it.

Thanks for responding Bryon. A little less and I could handle it I guess.
