1925. I was surprised also that when I had no understanding of certain matters, or was paying no attention, I then sensed that the angels had a more perfect one. From this it is also clear that the angels receive a still more perfect understanding from little children who do not understand what they are praying. This may seem surprising to anyone, and yet it is very true, and borne out to me by actual, plain, and quite a lot of experience. 1748, 10 May.
