My Angels


I wear a silver medallion with the Angel Michael on one side, and the Angel Gabriel on the other. I got this medallion Sunday, October 12, 2008 at the Renaissance Festival in Bonner Springs, KS. I had it struck precisely at 2:47 p.m. My father and I were both born at 2:47 p.m. It is a precious medallion to me.
Gabriel is the patron saint of writers and communicators. That would be me. I call on Archangel Gabriel to help me find the right words. Gabriel's name means, "Strength of God."
On the other side of the medallion is the Archangel Michael. Known as, "He who is Like God," Michael is strength - the protector. For heaven's sake, he's pictured as a powerful archangel wielding a sword and stepping on Satan's head. He is very strong - but also patient and merciful.
Enoch 70:11-16 shows that Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and Phanuel always 'escort' Yahweh [God the Father], whenever He leaves His Throne. Since Gabriel and Michael escort God, I'm feeling pretty good about wearing their "likeness" around my neck.
