When your mission is over - it is over. You cannot change it one bit - any more than you an change your height by hoping, thinking or fasting/praying about it. God holds all things in His hands - I know that, and have had to rely on that lately.
In my past, I have been saved a minimum of 10 times by what I consider to be angelic interventions. Some were incredible where I KNEW something was there, working on my behalf (as an engineer/statistician, I saw that things were not statistically probable in those moments - yet never saw a personage "moving the levers to save me"), and others I just had a feeling that I was being cared for. An overwhelming wash of emotion, witnessed by the HG. The stamp of the act is NOT forgettable.
I also echo the testimony of Elder Nelson, as shared in this book and posting on LDS Living:

A year or two ago, Elder Nelson spoke at a regional conference for Utah county. If I remember correctly, he promised all of us angels of every type.
ReplyDeleteI think he was trying to tell us that we will need them.
