Angels comforted and strengthened Jesus. In his weakness, Jesus prayed to his Father that the suffering pass. However, he also put his Father’s will above his own.
"And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and began to pray, saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done.” Now an angel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him."
—Luke 22:41-43
In Christ’s humanity, he prayed, and his father answered by sending an angel to strengthen Christ. This is a perfect example of how our Guardian Angels respond, when we ask. Whether in weakness or temptation or whatever the case, if we ask, they will respond. Their mission is to guide us. They respect our free will, but if we ask for their help… Our angels are waiting for us to ask…
Our Guardian Angels are formidable warriors. Quite often, they are depicted as frail, pretty, and dainty, but they wield the strength of heaven behind them. Why not use their spiritual prowess? They just wait for our request!
