Hi i'm not good with thread headers but we (my wife & myself) have experienced something i wanna share.
To start last year our best friend Mark passed away in a auto accident,great loss as we were brothers in our opinion..you people will have someone you
know that will become as close as a brother/sister or closer.
I have been feeling "down-ish" or paranoid the last couple of weeks as if something is going to happen,not death in the family feeling something of
a natural disaster/occurrence ..now maybe with all the weird weather (snowing in whole of South Africa last week & reaching the coldest we have ever
been -14 Degrees Celsius in one area) the floods ,the clouds (CLT's),weather phenomena all over the world, maybe i have become even more paranoid
*blaming that for now*
Last night i could not stop thinking "God is there a way out" then Mark kept popping up in my thoughts (though honestly we have spoken about him
earlier on Saturday while watching football/soccer)..so i asked God to give me a sign that he is "ok" ..is he with God ?we are Christian but doubt
always plays a big part & we could party ..not thumping here it's my story.
This morning at 8:03 i get a message on my phone i look & the message is "Your message could not be delivered to the following number 082*******"
,yes i recognized that it was my deceased friend's Mark's cell nr..that was "out there" lol with tears in my eyes now hear this not 20mins later i
get a voicemail to dial his number ..meaning my sms has been delivered and for whatever delay i can dial the number ..i did and i heard his voice as
in to leave a message saying "Mark" ..not "You have reached Mark" , just "Mark"..
I can recall in all honesty sending him a few sms's that day but to as which ones he got i cannot confirm and i shall so leave this for now so i can
feel "good'.
I did get teary about it ,my wife cried ..we both did what women do when watching a tear jerker i suppose ,tears of joy or tears of fear that
something could be happening..i do not know.
Just needed to share this.
Cheers
