Angels
From Miscellaneous Writings by Mary Baker Eddy

1 When angels visit us, we do not hear the rustle of wings,
nor feel the feathery touch of the breast of a dove; but
25 we know their presence by the love they create in our
hearts. Oh, may you feel this touch,—it is not the
clasping of hands, nor a loved person present; it is more
than this: it is a spiritual idea that lights your path!
The Psalmist saith: “He shall give His angels charge

1 over thee.” God gives you His spiritual ideas, and in
turn, they give you daily supplies. Never ask for to-
morrow: it is enough that divine Love is an ever-present
help; and if you wait, never doubting, you will have
5 all you need every moment. What a glorious inheritance
is given to us through the understanding of omnipresent
Love! More we cannot ask: more we do not want:
more we cannot have. This sweet assurance is the
“Peace, be still” to all human fears, to suffering of every
10 sort.
