Part of my collection are the Angel ornaments, lovingly collected at certain times in my life, and precious gifts from family and friends.
May angels rest beside your door
May you hear their voices sing
May you feel their loving care for you
May you hear their peace bells ring
May angels always care for you
And not let you trip and fall
May they bear you up on angel's wings
May they keep you standing tall
May they whisper wisdom in your ear
May they touch you when you need
May they remove from you each trace of fear
May they keep you from feeling greed
May they fill you with their presence
May they show you love untold
May they always stand beside you
And make you ever bold.
May they teach you what you need to know
About life here and here-after
May they fill you always with their love
And give you the gift of laughter
~Author Unknown~
Silently one by one, in the infinite meadows of heaven
Blossomed the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots, of angels.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow~
I went forth to find an angel
And found this effort brought
That life is full of so much good
The touch that angels wrought.
~James Joseph Huesgen~
How wonderful it must be to speak the language of angels, with no words for hate and a million words for love.
~Eileen Elias Freeman~
from The Angels' Little Instruction Book
In my life I have met many earth-bound angels. And talking about earth angels, I just read that actor Gary Senise and his foundation with untold numbers of people and volunteers, are sending 1,000 children of fallen soldiers to Disneyland for Christmas. These are earth angels for sure. Link here:

Thank you for stopping by and
have a great weekend.
Beautiful angel collection!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like them Christine.
DeleteWe all need angels in our lives.
ReplyDeleteVery true!
DeleteYou've put a lot of work into this collection. I can't believe all the original angel figures.
ReplyDeleteTime goes by so fast, one or two each Christmas for over 43 years.
DeleteYou have outdone yourself with wonderful quotes! Beautiful angels! My favorites are the first one, the little boy bell ringer, and the harpist. I notice that a few do not have wings. And the bible never says that angels have wings!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ginny, always makes me happy to know you enjoyed my posts.
DeleteLove your angels and the beautiful quotes. I collect angels and have an angel tree as well.
