"Fr. Iakovos was admitted to the Government Hospital of Athens for the problems he was having with his heart. My first impression when I first saw him was something that cannot be described. He literally was filled with light. As soon as the Elder saw me, he made the following observation about me which literally made my hair stand on end. As a Christian I had never thought about this before."
He said to me: “I do not know you. This is the first time that I meet you. But I can see your guardian angel standing behind you. All human beings have guardian angels and I now see your guardian angel. Be very careful that you never act in such a way that you chase away your guardian angel from your presence.” The Elder Iakovos finished his statement by saying: “That angel has been assigned to you from the day of your baptism. From the day of your baptism he accompanies you and he should never leave your side. It is he who will finally take your soul into his hands and will guide it until the Day of the Great Judgement. While guiding you to the Judgement the demons will attempt to bad mouth your acts in life. They will say to the angel ‘he did this evil deed and he did that sin. The guardian angel will defend your soul by responding that he also did this good act and that good deed. He is your lawyer and he will aggressively defend you. Therefore, be careful; do not ever distance yourself from him. I saw that he was close to you.” From that very moment I never forget that next to me I am being escorted in life by my personal guardian angel. This is a great message of joy to all those of us who have been baptised as Orthodox Christians.
