Lord, I have a question. The Old Testament prohibition against consulting the dead. Lord, can’t I, we, people, can’t we talk to, communicate with, our loved ones? And if yes—I talk to Patrick sometimes, I’ve tried to send pleas for help to Pat, can I actually be in touch with Mom? Dad? Gabby? Phillip? Can I? May I?That is my question.
Why would you want to be?
I miss them. I know I have You—shouldn’t that be enough?
I did not create humans to be solitary. I created you for community. Your relationships continue, that is the real message of hope and gladness in the Gospel. Of course you can communicate; they would love that. You would love that. It doesn’t take away from your time with Me any more than your being married to Pete, or having close friends, takes anything away from your relationship with Me. This is your great life-lesson, Eve: Both/And. Both a deep connection to Me AND a deep connection to all that makes up your daily life. And yes—that daily life can include angels, it can include animals, it does include people—people present to you in the body and people present to you in the spirit. Knock down those walls of fear, trust Me to lead you, and receive even more guidance and help and support and love.
