Maximus

There is a spirit that watches over you In the daylight hours, and nightime too. You may not think that they are there But there is a way to make you aware. I learned the name of my angel a long time ago Because I was interested and I wanted to know. His name is "Maximus" and is with me here To learn of his presence once made me fear. Because what you do is watched all the day The angel keeps tabs, God finds out that way. I guess you think I'm being naive Trust your faith, if you believe. If you want to know your angel's name There is a way to find out which is no game. Say a prayer for three days in a row And after each time ask him to reveal his name to you. If you believe in him he will tell you true If not, he may be silent to you. I know of others who have tried this I can say Some, have learned the names of their angels this way. When you pray for their name do not think it absurd Some, I know, will hear that singular word. It won't come as a shout from heaven on high But rather as a whisper, when your angel is nigh. These spiritual beings are here for us all Sometimes they wait just to here us call. And when you do wouldn't if be grand If you knew the spirit's name...who behind you stands! Try it and see if you think I'm fooling around Be honest with yourself with both feet on the ground. As someday that spiritual angel you will greet Wouldn't it be nice to be on a "first name" basis when you meet? And if you try but do not hear their name Keep on trying because your conviction was lame. I know many will think I'm crazy with this But knowing my angel's name has brought comfort and bliss. So try it yourself and see if in kind If your angel will speak to you...they really don't mind. Because then a dialogue with them you can share, Even if they never speak again, you'll know...they're there.

Wonderful write Daniel and I have known my angel's name for many years...its Matthew.. a 9 foot tall Angel with a 9 foot wing span.. I felt him arrive when I lost my third son to a lung silment.. I felt him taken but replaced with the entity and I always wanted to name a son of mine Matthew but never did.and now this is probably why.. cause of the entity.. good luck in the contest..this has winner written all over it.. with luv from the "Sweetheart" in Hawaii..
