Question
Hi Sharman, For awhile i've been praying for my guardian angel in human form to become my friend so i would have someone i could talk to who wouldn't ignore me, or say that i stress them out when i talk to them about my problems. Then about a day ago i started to lose hope and decided that i was going to give up on praying for that, then on that same day my mom and i where heading to subway and i just happened to glance at the mountains and right above them i noticed somthing that looked like a jet flying downwards. I started thinking why would a jet be flying downwards especially towards the mountains, so i decided to take another look, as i looked the second time i figured it was an astroid, but i felt like somthing was telling me to take a closer look so i did, and as i looked closer i noticed what looked like a ball of white light glowing from where the astroid should of been, then i started to wonder if my prayer to recieve my guardian angel in human form to be my friend had been answered, but i wasnt quite sure. Then as me and my mom continued to head to subway a song came on, it was a song about this girl being this guys guardian angel and how he loves her, i started to become more convinced. As we continued to drive towards subway i just happened to glance at a billboard that had a picture of an angel on it, then i became convinced. So Sharman, do you think that my prayer for my guardian angel in human form to become my friend has been answered?     Sinceraly Blake,

Dear Blake

      Hon I am so sorry it took me so long to get back with you but I am also a Flight Attendant and I am on the road allot.
      Well I read what you wrote and I know you want an answer from God but I have to say this I know God and I know that He wouldn't send a guardian angel to follow you or for you to depend on because He wants your focus and heart to be set on you.  He will send an Angel to relay a message for Him sometimes but when Angels appear to people and they are truly from God they will tell you themselves that they are servants of God so don't worship me or I am your brother too.
      I do believe we have Angels assigned to us because they Bible talks about we will judge Angels with Christ, but their main function is to be a messenger.
      Don't get to caught up in trying to talk to angels because there is a very real Devil out there and he will work on your vulnerability and send a false angel to you.
      My best advice is that perhaps you are praying for the wrong thing, ask God to come to you and be your friend and guide you, because He will, He will let you feel His presence and you will have real encounters with Him, He created the angels, what better friend to have.  As to everything you wrote and saw, I believe you, there is more to this world then people really know but Hon, look to the Creator first and not the created... love you

Praise God, I can stand with you and believe God for your blessing. I can pray with you, when you need a friend. I have not studied at any Colleges but I have picked up the Word of God and read it for myself. His Holy Spirit will stand in agreement with us. If we pray according to His Word.

Experience

I remember I wanted to sing professionally for the Lord, but I did not have the voice to do it. I prayed and asked God to bless me in this area. I forgot that I had even prayed this prayer and two weeks later God supernaturally blessed me with an awesome voice. He has blessed me many other times too. I have wanted to sing professionally all of my life and now God has blessed me with that, I now sing on my Churches Praise team and it is a wonderful ministry. God has also blessed me with the ability to write and now I have two books coming out soon, one this year and the other one next year. If God can bless me,,,the lowest of the low. Then believe me He can bless you, all we have to do is ASK.
