Prayer Flowers


So. Just got power back from it's week-long absence. I can honestly say the best part about it is that I don't have to use a flashlight to go to the bathroom anymore. Yay!
But the point of this isn't to expound upon the horrors, tribulations, or problems that I've encountered during the past week due to the rash of tornadoes that tore apart Alabama. It's to say tell you all about the wonderful new tidbit I discovered during my Tuesday morning expedition into angel mythology.

Sandalphon - Guardian Angel of Prayer
As he collects prayers, he converts them into crimson or purple flowers and they ascend to the Celestial City on the waves of light from his wings.

I mean, how cute is that? ♥ He collects prayers and wishes and turns them into flowers!
