Brethren,
we will love God's angels with a most affectionate love; for they
will be our heavenly co-heirs some day, these spirits who now are
sent by the Father to be our protectors and our guides. With such
bodyguards, what are we to fear? They can neither be subdued nor
deceived; nor is there any possibility at all that they should go
astray who are to guard us in all our ways.
