    About this ebook

    The invisible world of angels is so often overlooked, though it has been present since before the dawn of Creation, offering attentive service and protection to humankind. Based on Catholic teaching, Angels for Kids offers proof of the true existence of angels while dispelling prevalent contemporary myths.

    This inspiring book will open the eyes and hearts of youth and their families to a greater awareness of the unseen world, as well as provide warm encouragement to keep company with the incredible angelic friends who unceasingly glorify God and who have been a significant part of salvation history; protecting Jesus throughout His life, announcing heaven's plans, and guiding and protecting the faithful. A chapter of special prayers to the angels completes the book.

      Angels for Kids - Donna-Marie Cooper O'Boyle

      CHAPTER ONE

      A MULTITUDE OF ANGELS

      "Are not all angels spirits in the divine service, sent to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?"

      HEBREWS 1:14

      The invisible world of Angels is often overlooked, though amazingly it has been with us since the dawn of creation. Countless Angels offer service and protection to humankind. We just can't see it happening.

      But before I tell you more about what the Angels are and what they do, I'll tell you what they are not.

      Angels are not fairies.

      They are not make-believe. They are not a fantasy, a cartoon character, or a figment of someone's imagination. Angels are not fictitious—at all. Angels are real! They are intelligent heavenly spirits who constantly behold the face of God. That's certainly incredible to ponder!

      God created the Angels before he created the physical universe and before he created humankind. The Angels shouted for joy when God created the earth (Job 38: 4, 7). Our Church teaches us, We firmly believe and profess, without qualification, that there is only one true God…Creator of all things visible and invisible, spiritual and corporeal, who by His almighty power, from the very beginning of time, has created both orders of creatures in the same way out of nothing. God made the Angels and people out of nothing! Just think about that for a moment.

      Some people refuse to believe that there are Angels, and some people have not yet been convinced that they exist. Blessed Pope John Paul II pointed out in his study called Catechesis on the Angels that the existence of Angels was denied even in Christ's time by people called the Sadducees. The Holy Pontiff went on to explain that the reality of Angels has been continually denied in every age since that time.

      We only need to look to the Scriptures for proof of the reality of Angels. Sacred Scripture identifies nine choirs (or types) of Angels. And Jesus spoke of more than twelve legions of Angels. When Jesus was arrested after praying in the Garden of Gethsemane, he said, Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? (Matthew 26:53).

      Jesus also spoke about the Angels of the innocent and the Angels who will separate the good from the bad on the last day. Jesus's disciples asked Jesus to explain the parable of the weeds of the field. Jesus told them that he sows the good seeds and the devil sows bad seeds. Jesus said that when he comes back to earth at the end of the world, he will send his angels, and they will collect out of the kingdom all causes of sin and all evildoers, and they will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father (Matthew 13:41–43). These words are powerful and give us much to think about as to how we are living our lives.

      Angels are mentioned in both the Old Testament and the New Testament of the Bible, where we learn that Angels worked throughout history as intermediaries between God and people. We'll look at that in greater depth in chapter two.

      Saint Thomas Aquinas said, The Angels work together for the benefit of us all. We are very blessed indeed because God decided to create the Angels. The good
