My daughter passed away at the age of 9 with an illness. I believe that with God’s infinite love and mercy she is in heaven. Can I/one say that she is now an angel in heaven?
I have no doubt that your little girl is with the Lord. But she is not an angel. Angles are pure spirits that God created to be His special messengers. Not only do they not have bodies, they are far more intelligent the we are.
