Give my guardian angel a pay rise...

[anglomedved]

    

I am often asked: why are you Orthodox? The best answer I can give is that nearly twenty years ago, when I had hit one of my once-every-ten-years really bad patches, my guardian angel went desperation to the good Lord and said: what do I do with him? It hasn’t worked with the Anglicans, nor with the Roman Catholics. The good Lord sighed deeply - like any father does when a difficult son is in trouble and he still loves him despite it all - and said “Throw him to the Russians”. 

 So far it has worked. A Russian wife has been a large part of it. Do I pray to the good Lord to give him a pay rise? Or perhaps a church decoration?
