Eh... okay... okay. No more wine.

I'm just being silly. It's a deep subject.

Again, nothing.

Well maybe a couple years ago I played with the word a bit more with changing vowels... and landed at the English transliteration... "Jeremiel". Able to do an internet search this time I discovered that there is indeed an angel known as "Jeremiel". He's commonly known as "Ramiel":

Meet Archangel Jeremiel, the Angel of Hopeful Visions and Dreams

I found that slightly amusing. lol

I thought I remembered a time when people were naming their angels.

I know a lady that collects angels. Bought several lighted curio cabinets for that. It sure didn't help her family stay together and live for God. Sad that people place so much emphasis on these things.

When I say - JESUS! I know that is all I need. He can send whomever He wants to help me, but He is in charge. I call on Him alone.

As long as He doesn't send Jake, you'll be A-Okay. lol

I think my guardian angel looks like Larry the Cable Guy...

"Hey, Gabriel. Hold my beer and watch this..."

LOL! I don't think we know all the times angels come to our aid at God's insistence.

I've had two of them in my time. Great picture.

True. But sometimes I get the impression that my angel says, "Awww man... do I have to? I mean... he's the one who thought it would be cool to hood-surf after the frat party."

Maybe they work in teams. It does say, "angels"

Psalm 91:11 ESV
For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

Some "experts" like this flaky site I reviewed says some of us have more than one guardian angel. In fact, the site literally says, and I quote...

Some experts believe that we have more than one guardian angel and can even have as many as three guardian angels. So if you have always felt additional loving angelic beings around you, you may be one of the lucky ones who have more than one guardian angel!

Okay... let me say this... "lucky?" Satan is just one angel that wigged out and couldn't hack it, and we see the absolute havok he's brought. If you need THREE guardian angels... you're not "lucky"... you're a mindless, risky, clutz who needs to pay far more attention to what you're doing! lol

Yeah, I can just see me at the Judgment now... acting all special because I have three guardian angels. I pipe up, "Yeppers, guys... I got THREE guardian angels." God, Michael, Gabriel, and Uriel all kinda look at each other awkwardly and say, "Okay Chris, that's nice." Jake rolls his eyes, robe all ripped, halo bent, looking like he's been through a blender. He's so glad it's over because the other two angels always take off to pick up some manna with extra cheese or something when I'm doing something stupid. lol
