Are guardian angels real?

Dishes, laundry, doctor’s appointment, work deadlines, birthday present . . .

We don’t know much about angels, but we do know that God gives them assignments that include protecting and helping us. Angels come and go from God’s presence specifically to do as he asks.

The details of most of those assignments are not ours to know, but we can know that having been in God’s presence, they bring God’s will to the situation. We, too, have access to God’s presence. That means we can also be influenced by God’s will for good, for ourselves, and for others.

This angel in Exodus was definitely a guardian, and maybe there are times we sense a guardian angel around us too. We can learn there is power in God’s presence that goes with those who do God’s will.
