Dear Angel,
please, relieve the pain caused by the death of my loved ones. Help me regain peace and joy in the knowledge that their souls rest sweetly in the arms of heaven’s angels. Please, let them know that they are infinitely loved and shine my endless love upon their souls. Help me open a divine connection with my loved ones, that death can never erase nor diminish.
Amen.
