angel
Heavenly being, winged
Angel is the Christian term used to denote a spiritual being that is a messenger of God.
Guardian angels are conceived as benevolent and interested in the welfare of those they protect or aid.
This feature spills over into the figurative uses of angel, to denote a person who is well behaved (an angel child), very helpful (she was an angel and picked the kids up from daycare), or able to promote an enterprise through the infusion of capital (angel investor).
