I don't think you should meditate too much on angels. Spend most of your time on God's Word. But here goes:
Their existence is taught in at least thirty-four books of the Bible. The word angel occurs about 275 times. Christ taught about the existence of angels Matt18:10, 26:53
Their creation is shown in Colossians 1:16
Before the creation of the world Job 38:6-7
State of their creation was in holiness Jude 6
Intellect 1 Peter 1:12
Emotion Luke 2:13
Will Jude 6
Spirit Beings Heb 1:14
Without power to reproduce after their kind Mark 12:25
Designated by masculine gender in Scripture Gen18:1-2 Zech 5:9 for possible exception
They do not die Luke 20:36
They are distinct from human beings Ps 8:4-5
They have great power 2 Pet 2:11
They are Innumerable Heb 12:22
One Archangel is named Jude 9
Chief Princes Dan 10:13
Ruling Angels Eph 3:10
Guardian Angels for all, Heb 1:14; for children Matt18:10
Seraphim Isa 6:1-3 have to do with worship of God
Cherubim Gen 3:22-24 Guarding the holiness of God
Elect Angels 1 Tim 5:21
Predicted Christs birth Luke 1:26-33
Protected the baby Matt 2:13
Strengthened Christ Matt 4:11 Prepared to defend him Matt 26:53
General ministry of aiding Heb 1:14

The Hebrew and Greek words translated “angel” in the Bible simply mean a messenger. Angels are God’s spirit messengers, and their services are often in behalf of humans. Jesus Christ described what great concern they have for God’s servants, when he said: “See to it that you men do not despise one of these little ones; for I tell you that their angels in heaven always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.” The psalmists also gave the comforting assurance: God “will give his own angels a command concerning you, to guard you in all your ways.” And again: “The angel of the LORD is camping all around those fearing him, and he rescues them.”—Matt. 18:10; Ps. 91:11; 34:7; Heb. 1:7, 14.

The Bible reveals that long before this earth had been prepared for human habitation Almighty God created spirit sons or angels. This is revealed by His inquiry made long ago of his servant Job, which, according to the Jewish Targum, reads: “Where did you happen to be when I founded the earth? Tell me, if you do know understanding. When the morning stars joyfully cried out together, and all the bands of angels began shouting in applause?”—Job 38:4, 7, 1957 Edition, footnote.

God not only created these spirits long before he did man, but he also made them a higher form of life than human. “Angels,” the Bible says, “are greater in strength and power.” And God’s Word explains that man was made “a little lower than angels.”—2 Pet. 2:11; Heb. 2:6, 7.

Not only were angels made superior to humans, but even among themselves there are various ranks or classifications. First in position is Michael the archangel, whom the Scriptures show is none other than the Word, or Chief Spokesman for God, who became the man Jesus Christ. (Dan. 12:1; John 1:1; Rev. 12:7) Then there are seraphs, whom the prophet Isaiah saw attending Jehovah in a vision of His temple. (Isa. 6:2, 6) Also described in the Scriptures are the cherubs, representations of whom were placed on the ark of the covenant housed in the Most Holy compartment of the wilderness tabernacle and later in the temple built by Solomon. (Ex. 25:18-22; 1 Ki. 8:6, 7; Ps. 99:1) And, finally, there is the great body of angelic messengers.

The combined number of these spirit creations of God reaches many millions. In a prophetic vision of Jehovah’s throne the prophet Daniel saw “a thousand thousands that kept ministering to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand that kept standing right before him.”—Dan. 7:9, 10.

There are so many verses (too many to list here) in scripture that deal with this topic.
Find or borrow a Bible with study aids and topical references in it. Look under "angels" and begin your study.

I can't find it in the Bible but I know that they have wings, and they have the most innocent face you ever saw in your life; and they have no physical edge like we do. They are just an appearance of light.
