My first and only encounter with an angel happened when i was in high school.

I attnded a retreat that was required by my Religion class (i was a student in an exclusive catholic school for girls with the name of the school named after an important biblical event). The retreat measter said you can ask for the name of your guardian angel. She said pray to your guardian angel and the 1st name you think of in the morning would be the name of your angel.

I prayed every morning and every evening for 2-3 months so that the name would be revealed to me. Then one day, it happened.

I was at my English class taking an exam. We were studying Jane Austen's novel, Sense and Sensibility, so the exam was about the novel we discussed in class. There was one part of the exam where we had to match a description to the character's name. One of the names, i suddenly stared at and all of the words around it disappeared (how on earth did that happen?). I was focused on that name and the prayer to the guardian angel suddenly popped into my head. "Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God's love commits me here, ever this day, be at my side to light and guard, to rule and guide , Amen." The voice in my head finished the prayer and disappeared as quickly as it came and all the words surrounding the name in the exam paper appeared again. Everything was back to nornal.

I guess your guardian angel will reveal his/her name at his/her own time and way.

My guardian angel's name is Eliza.
