Yes I am a firm believer! Seen them! Smelled them! Heard them!

Beautiful...thank you for sharing!

I believe...have had several experiences but never actually saw one. Smells, strange happenings, etc. My daughter has had things happen to her such as when she walked into our church when it was empty to plan her wedding decorations and distinctly heard her grandma say "Well, hi there sweetie." That was her pet name for my daughter. Also, one day my daughter and I were talking on the phone and talking about memories of mom when all of a sudden my daughter exclaimed, "you're not going to believe this...the rocking chair on the other side of the room is spinning around all by itself!" I think it's comforting to believe sometimes.

I am really enjoying those stories being told here. Thanks for asking and thanks to those sharing thier stories.

Yes, Most Definitely. J J

The day she died, at the moment she stopped breathing, the sun came shining through that window. Both my older sister and I saw it. We studied that window to try to figure out how that sun came through and why at that moment. Still have not figured it out. I have also heard from her and others since they have died. It is usually in the form of a dream, but I feel their touch and hear their words. I do not care if it is real or not. It sure makes my life easier to know they are there.

Amazing...didn't it make you feel good to know your sister was communicating with you? The same thing happened when my brother died of cancer. We were in the church for his funeral and it had been grey and raining all day. His friend got up to say a few things and all of a sudden a bright ray of sunshine came through a window way up high and shined right down on the urn. After the service, we went outside and it was still grey and raining...no explanation except that he was there. Kid you not...everyone saw it and talks about it still even though that was 13 years ago already!

I believe in Jesus Christ........do I believe there is a spirit world AND that they communicate with us....yes, very much. One just has to be open to it.

I believe I was pranked by a poltergeist as a teen. I had a cassette tape player. I know I had left it on my bed. When I went to get it, it was not there. I tore my room up looking for it. I asked my brother and my folks if they had seen it. Nope, nope and nope. I went back to my room to look again, and there it was on my bed right where I left it.
Strange.

Absolutely! Ghosts and angels both. the ghosts can be good, bad or ornery. I'm sure my daughter had one in the house she just moved from. She saw shadows several times and the kids didn't want to sleep in their own beds. The other daughter had a ghost cat. They saw it batting the curtains frequently in just 1 room.

My husband was visited by his family during the week before he died. He had always said they visited frequently.
