Have You Received Signs From Your Pet Or Messages From Our Creator Abo Options

Hi, All. I recently started posting here after the sudden death of our beloved greyhound Britney Boopers. The support I've received has been incredible and incredibly comforting and helpful.

Two things happened recently that I believe were God's way of helping me through this.

The day after Britney died, I prayed loudly to God to help me deal with this. I was begging. Beseeching.
That very day, the enormously heavy grey cloud that was over me very suddenly lifted. It was so sudden! I also felt a rush of strength. It was a palpable, tangible feeling of strength that rushed into my body. It was a feeling of brightness that I felt in my whole being. It felt like a river of bright strength coursing through me.
I attribute it to God answering my prayer for help.

The next day (yesterday), I was driving to do some errands. I normally play my cds when I drive. I NEVER listen to the radio. But, yesterday, I decided to turn on the radio instead.

The first thing I heard was a commercial advertising some sort of research or conference or talk show on how to cope after we have lost a loved one. STRANGE, I thought.

I flipped to another channel. They were playing the tail end of Beyonce's "Halo." I had never listened to it before, but I was listening now!

The lyrics from the part of the song I heard:
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

Chorus :
I can't feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't begin
To pull me back to the ground again

I can't feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

WOW!!!
Well, it gets better. The NEXT song was Hall and Oates' "She's Gone."

Lyrics:
Everybody's high on consolation
Everybody's trying to tell me what's right for me
My daddy tried to bore me with a sermon
but it's plain to see that they can't comfort me

Sorry Charlie for the imposition
I think I've got it, got the strength to carry on
I need a drink and a quick decision
Now it's up to me, ooh what will be

Chorus:
She's Gone Oh I, Oh I'd
better learn how to face it
She's Gone Oh I, Oh I'd
pay the devil to replace her
She's Gone - what went wrong

Up in the morning look in the mirror
I'm worn as her tooth brush hanging in the stand
my face ain't looking any younger
now I can see love's taken her toll on me

She's Gone

Think I'll spend eternity in the city
let the carbon and monoxide choke my thoughts away
and pretty bodies help dissolve the memories
but they can never be what she was to me

She's Gone


OH MY GOSH!!!!!


Have you had similar experiences? Signs from God or your pet?

[Harley Parley]

Tokolos that is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

I know that on the day my Harley died I was looking for any sign that he was ok. Well, this past Christmas I got a birdbath for my yard. I love birds and Harley knew this as he would never chase them when they were in our yard. Well, he laid near me as I assembled and built the stand and watched as I filled it up, only to see no birds come to the darn thing for almost 6 weeks. On the night he died, I stared out into the yard where he laid when I picked him up after he walked his last walk into the yard. I felt incredibly sad and overcome with grief when all of a sudden this tiny little starling landed on the edge of the birdbath, took a drink, then proceeded to quickly wash itself. It gave me comfort and a realization that Harley was out there happy and healthy and still making me happy.

A couple days later I heard this song and it brought me comfort. Maybe he's singing it or maybe I'm singing it for him.

Somewhere Out There
(Steve Earle)

Somewhere out there in the world tonight
Just out of my reach
I hear your heart beat
Comin' in loud and clear tonight
Poundin' in my brain
Callin' out your name

In the darkness something binds you to me
So that I can find you
When you want me
I will be there
Waiting on you

Somewhere out there
In there in your heart tonight
Where I have never gone
You are not alone
It is tearing me all apart alright
But girl (boy) what can I do
When I'm so far from you

And when I lay me down to sleep
My one and only prayer is you'll keep
Safe from harm until I get
Wherever you are
Somewhere out there

If you're sad or if you're lonely
If you’re scared, if you're only
Tired of fightin'
Seekin' shelter
Just hold on I'm
Somewhere out there

Somewhere out there in the world tonight
Just out of your reach
You'll hear my heart beat

Peace & Love
Ben

Harley, that's beautiful. I'm imagining that little "bird" perched on the bird bath saying hi to you!
