angels

[Tony]

It has been said that the evil one can't read minds.. whom to my undersanding is a fallen angel.. but what about the good angels that are loyal to God? (Guardian, archangels, etc) can they read our mental prayers to them?

Thanks

Tony

Sure...they can hear our prayers...but let's be clear. Prayers are not simply in our minds. Once we offer the prayer, spoken or unspoken, they become answerable by God and attainable to those to whom it is directed.

Basically, if one prays to St. Peter, for example; once the prayer is prayed, out loud or in the heart, it is a prayer that is heard. So, while we may not vocalize the prayer, that doesn't mean that it isn't heard.

And it isn't reading minds, but rather answering that which has been offered up, in a non-vocal way.
