Chicken Soup for the Soul: Messages from Heaven and Other Miracles: 101 Stories of Angels, Answered Prayers, and Love That Doesn't Die

by Amy Newmark

When our loved ones leave this world, our connection with them does not end. These 101 miraculous stories of signs from beyond, amazing connections, and love that doesn’t die will inspire and comfort you.
 

Death takes away the physical presence of our loved ones, but not their spirit. Sometimes they send us signs from beyond, or come to us in dreams or as angels. Sometimes our loved ones visit heaven but come back because it’s not their time. Your faith will be renewed and you’ll be awed by these miraculous true accounts,
The young mother who went to heaven and asked for a little more time—and got it—so she could write letters to her daughters for all their milestones The widow who discovered the captions “I love you” and “I will always love you” had miraculously appeared on old photos of her husband The grandma with dementia who was never told about her granddaughter’s death, but who announced that her granddaughter visited her regularly, and then related details of her death unknown to the rest of the family The woman at her friend Nancy’s funeral who asked her to send a hug, and minutes later was approached by the priest, who embraced her and whispered, “Here’s a hug from Nancy.” The man struggling to write a eulogy for his brother—killed in an accident along with a friend—who goes for a walk and finds his shadow is accompanied by two distinctly different human shadows that don’t match his body or movements And 96 more incredible stories!

An amazing book that I was honored to be a part of in not just one, but two stories! Remember when looking for a sign, don't overlook the subtle ones. More often then not our loved ones sent us meaningful messages that are not meant for the rest of the world to observe.

Being a garden, my favorite story was Mom's Gladiola by Dorann Weber. Get your box of Kleenex ready.

BROUGHT BOOK HOME FROM CUMULUS STASH OF THINGS; MOSTLY FEMALE WRITERS SO THAT HAS TO BE CONSIDERED; I GAVE IT A TRY BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE ANY OTHER BOOKS WITH ME TO READ AT THE MOMENT; GAVE UP TRYING TO FINISH IT; THE MESSAGES ARE POSITIVE BUT I JUST AM NOT INTO PEOPLE FROM THE DEAD LEAVING SIGNS AND MESSAGES. HAVING SAID THAT I DO BELIEVE IN ANGELS AND THAT THEIR IS A CLOUD OF WITNESSES THAT SURROUND MY JOURNEY OF FAITH SO WHO AM I TO SAY THAT THESE STORIES DID NOT HAPPEN.

Inspiring and awesome book about real-life messages from our angels. My experience "Beacon of Flight" starts on page 272.
