He Knows, He Knows

ImageI spoke to someone recently who is missing her dad, mom, and best friend, who passed recently. The hole that my dad’s leaving has left in this house is unimaginable, but we have to remember that our loved ones are happy in heaven; we are the ones who grieve for them, because we miss their earthly presence! I’ve shared a few things with you, but as I can’t look you in the eyes while talking, I don’t know what you’re thinking. I’m going to risk talking to you a little about something and you are free to draw your own opinion, ask the Holy Spirit to touch you as you listen. The first time I saw Heaven, there was no sign saying “Heaven Right this way”, I saw a beautiful, endless, expanse of a marble floor, almost translucent in color. There was light, soft light with a pink hue coming from a source I couldn’t see. I saw a very beautiful white bench and on it sat a person that I knew, a young, vibrant woman with a husband and children to care for; Her hands were folded in her lap, she had on a pink dress and looked absolutely gorgeous. The focal point of the room changed and I saw a little room, like a waiting area, and in it three people that had already gone to heaven, I knew they were waiting for the person I saw to come to them. When this vision was finished I took it to my dad and told him we needed to pray for the person I saw sitting on the bench, I knew something was about to happen, she and her family needed prayer. The next day I got a call, this person had suddenly, and without explanation, died, her heart had simply stopped beating as she sat reading a book. God is so good; He let me see that three of her very close relatives, already there, were waiting and they were there to greet her upon her entrance into the heavenly realm. Never doubt that your loved one is alive and well, just because you can no longer see them doesn’t mean they no longer exist. 2 Corinthians 5:6 (KJV) Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. V 8. We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Maybe you are wondering why I saw that, and if I did and prayed about it why did it happen? God, obviously, knows us from our beginning to our end, Psalm 139:13-16 Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out; you formed me in my mother’s womb. I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration—what a creation! You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body; You know exactly how I was made, bit-by-bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something. Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, The days of my life all prepared before I’d even lived one day. Keep your spirit open; let Him show you things to come. He has shown my many things but because of space restriction in this venue, I will save them for another time. An old hymn says; “He knows the bitter, weary way, the endless striving day by day, the soul that weeps, the soul that prays, He knows, He knows. He Knows, Oh thought so full of bliss, for though our joys on earth we miss, we still can bear it feeling this, He Knows, He Knows” I’ll close with words I heard my grandfather say so many times, “God is too good to do evil, and too wise to make a mistake” He knows…You are loved.

    Thank you so much for sharing and being willing to be so transparent during this difficult time. I have to say I got a bit excited in your reference to our loved ones who have gone on with the Lord as still “existing”. Because that is exactly how I felt when my mother moved away. I went to the funeral home for final preparation and when I looked at the shell that once held her spirit, I knew it was not her. I touched the hand and the fingers I’d come to know for over 38 years … and it wasn’t her. Please forgive me if I sound a bit morbid. But I was fascinated at how God works when I looked at my mother’s former home and knew she was not in there, but she still existed —- somewhere else. She just wasn’t in our realm any more. That experience along with the passing of my father brought me closer to God and an awareness of externity that I had never experienced before. But isn’t that just like our Heavenly Father? While it was also more difficult than anything I’d ever walked through, it was also the most precious time I had with the Lord. I cannot comprehend a person copeing with this type of loss and not knowing Christ. (Psalms 23: 1-4 “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters.3 He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.)
