HTML

<div class="form-group">
        <div class="col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2">
            <?php echo $result; ?>    
        </div>
    </div>

PHP

 if ($error == false) {
$result='<div class="alert alert-success">Thank You! I will be in touch</div>';
}else {
    $result='<div class="alert alert-danger">Sorry there was an error sending your message. Please try again later</div>';
}

Try like this:

echo '<div class="alert alert-success alert-dismissable" id="flash-msg">
<button aria-hidden="true" data-dismiss="alert" class="close" type="button">×</button>
<h4><i class="icon fa fa-check"></i>Success!</h4>
</div>';

And if you want auto dismiss alert then use jquery:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#flash-msg").delay(3000).fadeOut("slow");
});
