The illustration is from my book, <em>Encyclopedia of Angels, Spirit Guides and Ascended Masters.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Three Angels<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>A woman heard a knock on her door late one night. When she opened the door, there were three glorious angels standing before her. She stood there speechless. The first angel said she was the angel of health, and she told her that she could only invite one of the three angels into her home and her life. The second angel told her she was the angel of abundance, and the third angel told her she was the angel of love. They said they would be back in the morning for her answer and, in a swirl of beautiful lights, they disappeared.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The woman rushed to tell her family of the miraculous visit. They argued late into the night. Her husband had been ill, so he wanted the angel of health. Her son wanted more money, so he argued for the angel of abundance. The woman just listened.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>At dawn, she again heard a knock at the door. With a long sigh the woman said, \u201cI have decided to invite in the angel of love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One by one all the angels filed in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut you told me I could only choose one!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The angels replied, \u201cWhen you freely invite love into your life, all the other blessings will surely follow.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>A tea part with the angels<\/h3>\n<p>Make sure you spend sometime each day welcoming and talking to the angels. They are after all your invited guests. You might even create an evening ritual of sitting with a cup of herbal tea each evening and talking with them. Remember those tea parties as a child \u2026 have one as an adult with the angels. Then have sweet dreams \u2026\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more Fearless Fridays:<br \/>\n<\/strong>\u2022 <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/2009\/07\/fearless-fridays-9.html\">5 Ways Fear Can Improve Your Life<\/a><br \/>\n\u2022 <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/2009\/07\/fearless-fridays-5.html\">7 Ways to Overcome Fear<\/a><br \/>\n\u2022 <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/2009\/07\/fearless-fridays-7.html\">Inspirational Quotes on Fear<\/a><br \/>\n\u2022 <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/fearless-friday\/\">View all Fearless Fridays posts<\/a><\/p>\n<p>With love and aloha,<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"http:\/\/susangregg.com\/\">Susan<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.<\/p>\n<p>Make <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/\">Angels on Your Shoulder<\/a> part of your daily routine and share it with a friend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is a story I dearly love.
