Walking Gently with Mystery: Reflections on Angels, Discernment, and Purpose

.

 Lately I have been reflecting on my journey with my relationship the Angels and how this journey has shaped not only my faith, also my sense of purpose. I truly  believe in angels.  I believe they help us fulfil our mission in life. There's a verse that confirms this:  For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” Psalm 91:11.

It means that angels act in loving obedience to God’s will. Their presence is not independent, but part of God’s ongoing care for humanity. As I walk my life path, with clarity and sometimes uncertainty or both, I feel supported by divine guidance that protects, strengthens, and gently directs me toward what is good and true.

For a long time, my thoughts felt crowded. Questions, curiosity, longing, and faith all moving together, sometimes without clear edges. At the centre of it all was a simple truth: I believe in angels.

My curiosity led me to read religious books, especially “The Angels and Their Missions. According to the Fathers of the Church”, by Jean Danielou.  He describes angels as mediators of the divine, yet that order never violates human freedom. The belief that angels are mediators of the divine, and guides to humanity encouraged me to on a journey to explore how angels can help us.

It led me to explore different workshops over time. I completed an Aura-Soma workshop on angels — an experience that felt overwhelming, yet meaningful. I wanted to understand more. I wanted to connect. Later, I attended a yearly online workshop with Terah Cox. Some aspects resonated deeply and helped things fall into place, while other parts did not quite align with what I had been taught about angels within the Church.

Another workshop, this time on Divine Energy, introduced the idea of different levels of angels. That stirred something familiar in me. In Church, I had often heard names sung in hymns — always in Greek. I recognised the sounds but didn’t know their spelling, so I couldn’t explore them further at the time. Words like Seraphim and Cherubim would pass by during the service, leaving me quietly wondering what they were pointing to.

I have always been drawn to the mystical — not magic, not spells, not anything dark or manipulative — but the mystical that speaks of beauty, reverence, and holy mystery. The kind of mystery that cannot be fully explained. The unknown that invites wonder rather than control. This is what Danielou implied in his book. He suggests that mystery means not everything must be understood; instead, trust that guidance is present when clarity is absent.

Looking back, I realise God taught me to trust and understood my longing, especially when I felt isolated. Even, when my curiosity led me into unfamiliar territory, He kept me safe. He protected me and continually redirected me toward my true north: to love and serve God. When I drifted, He gently corrected my course, with help of my guardian angel.

My journey with the 72 angels eventually led me into a deeper appreciation of Judaism — the faith Jesus Himself was born into and taught from. In Judaism, angels are treated with deep respect. They are not beings at our command. They exist to serve God and to assist humanity in fulfilling God’s purposes, always under His authority.

When angels help, it is by God’s permission — not because we summon, chant, or attempt to control spiritual forces. This is why I struggle with many modern interpretations that link the 72 angels of the Tree of Life with magic or personal power. To me, this feels at odds with what Judaism — and Christianity — both teach.

So why continue to reflect on angels at all?

Because I am discerning my own work and calling. I work with angels as a way of reminding us that we are not alone, that there is an order and meaning to life beyond what we can see, and that our lives unfold within God’s wisdom — not through our own control.

Angels, as I understand them, are not forces to be activated or energies to be used. They are created beings who serve God alone. They are messengers and servants, acting only by God’s permission and always pointing beyond themselves — back to Him.

Throughout what has sometimes felt like a winding journey, God kept me grounded. He placed wise guidance around me and prevented me from misusing what I was learning. For that, I am deeply grateful.

At its heart, my work is about helping people slow down, reflect, and reconnect with their divine purpose. We all have one. I want to support those who sense that there is more to life than what is visible — and to do so in a way that is safe, reverent, and faithful. 

Have you ever felt that there is more than meets the eye?

Have you sensed that life holds deeper meaning than what you have been told?

Have you wondered about the great mysteries of life, yet felt unsure or even afraid to ask the questions? 

Mystery does not have to lead us away from God. When held with humility and discernment, it can gently draw us closer — into wonder, trust, and peace. 

“The angel is not a being to be possessed or mastered; he is a presence that leads us, by God’s will, into the hidden depths of divine order and love.” — Jean Danielou  "The Angels and Their Missions. According to the Fathers of the Church”
