Daily Meditation for February 19, 2025

“In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.” These words from Psalm 138 call us to be alert to the angels in our lives. Who are the angels? These are those who we connect with often during the day. It may be the sender of a card or letter that cheers your day. It may be a phone call from a friend that you have not heard from for a long time. It may be a visitor on a day when you are discouraged. When are you the angel in someone’s life? Remember the day you gave some food to a hungry person. There was the day when you helped a neighbor shovel snow or start their car. It may be the compliment that you paid someone. At the end of the day, recall the angels in your life and the times you were that angel for someone else.
