    It is though faith, we can not know for sure that they hear us, but we know that we need often to talk to them. I have often sat and talked to my wife who passed away,

    These days, there is more and more convincing evidence of the Afterlife! The Holy Bible also assures us that there is a Hereafter or Afterlife. Loved ones are always near to us inasmuch as true Love never dies, it will continue forever. Even though they are no longer in a physical body, our loved ones still continue living in their new Spiritual body just as God has told us.

    If is oftimes difficult for some to grasp that our loved ones in spirit can be with us and can hear us when we talk to them. They can! Those who have had NDEs (Near-Death Experiences) from around the world always seem to allude to being able to hear and see what is going on in the room and other places while they were considered "dead" due to an accident, surgery, etc. When they were brought back, they were able to tell their story which is remarkably similar to those of others across the world. They can hear us when we talk to them or by writing a letter to them and then reading it aloud they will be able to hear what is said. This can be very comforting for those experiencing loss and having a hard time dealing with their loss.

    For more on this, there are several great websites that address the Afterlife and you might consider visiting them for further information.

    In order to deeply connect with a passed on soul.. you need to feel them, plead them, and have faith in their presence. I had a long conversation with my grandma who died last year on my birthday (and the same time I was born!) one night in my bedroom... and didn't even realize I was doing it. It wasn't even about my grandmother. The fact that out of complete no where I started talking to my grandma, is a clear indication that she was definitely watching over me, saw that I needed to spill some emotions, and I guess she somehow told my subconscious mind that she was there with me. The thing that was amazing was that my dad commented on how he dreamed about his mother that night and couldn't sleep when he awoke in the middle of the night, around the same time I was talking to her. My dad never makes odd statements about his sleep so it was obvious something was getting to him. The cool thing is, when I was talking to my grandma I was sort of stating my confusion and frustration over a certain thing that I cannot remember, and I actually got some odd and instant clear realization that got rid of all of my confusion... which I for sure wouldn't be able to do on my own.

    Usually there's no promise of communication unless you are in need of guidance from an angel that cares for you. God sending a loved one is much more comforting than just an angel (not from a human soul)... that would freak anyone out a bit.

    I have tried this is doesn't work. I have cried, Begged, pleded, Prayed and wished for and so far nothing has happened. I do talk to my Dead parents, but I don't believe that they hear me. As in the Holy Bible it states that the Dead have no Conscious and no memory of their life on earth. They are just asleep in the gave with no more memory, life and all who they have loved or hated on earth those feelings have perished. It is in the old testement of the Bible " Ecclesiastes 9 Verses 5 & 6. Also in Job 14 verse 12 says that a man lies down again and rises not again till the heavens and earth will be no more or be roused out of his sleep.

    These vereses in Ecclesiastes and Job clearly states that the dead are not alive again till the Second coming of Christ when he rises the Dead. Now the Dead are asleep, not alive no more, sad to say just rotting in the earth. The Spirit is the " Breath of Life " which God blew into Adams nostrils when he created him and Eve, so that Breath goes back to God which is known as the Spirit.

    Also all the calling I did to my mother, and father all of my mourning, crying and grieiving if they really heard me they would have at least come to me in a Dream and gave me comfort buy letting me know if they are alive in heaven or not, but no answer shows they don't exist.

    The simple answer is : "we will never know".
    The more extended answer is : There is not one single iota of supported evidence that there is an afterlife or that there are "souls" that allow communication, either with living human beings or with departed.

    Though almost all human beings would favor the idea of getting reunited with departed family members, friends, and/or other loved ones, there is no Objective Supported Evidence at all for this to be possible. The thought however can help many to get to terms with experienced loss of loved-ones.

    But reality ? No, not really !

    Your loved ones who have passed on are watching over you. My mother passed in November 2009, and I saw her in my livingroom the same week of Christmas peering at my husband from behind because he had nodded off on the couch. When she saw me she turned and faded out as she walked away. She had on white, but we buried her in black and red. My two year-old has seen her on about 5 occaisions telling me there is a woman over there and I look and don't see anything. She has scared her away from the breakfast table, not intentionally I'm sure, but she will come running to me saying the woman is at the table. My father said she was in his bedroom and pulled on his pajamas and he yelled at her and told her to let go of him. He heard her speak and say "come on!" I have never heard of them actually speaking except in a dream. One of the pastor's was having trouble at home with his wife and nobody knew it. His father came to me in my sleep in a dream and said "tell the saints to pray for him or he's not going to make it." I told my father about it and described that pastor's father because I am 35 and that guy on the dream died when I was 10. I guess I was some kind of channel for him.Weird. So, obviousley his father saw from the other side that pastor had trouble in his home. Right today that pastor does not know that I know anything.

    Yes we can. We are not communicating with the dead but with the living. This is a mystery but if we are open, God will give us understanding and open our spiritual senses.Did mot Elijah and Moses appear to Jesus and talk with Him (Matt 17:3). He is not the God of the dead but of the living (Mark 12:26.27). Our connection and communication with our loved ones does not end when they leave this earth. There is a constant communication between heaven and earth. The Lord communicates to us, angels aasist us and minister to us, our loved ones who become as Angels (Matthew 22:30)and are citizens of heaven also can communicate with us and express their love toward us. We can feel them and sense them with us and we can communicate with them. We are all part of the Body of Christ and there is no separation or barrier in the spirit. There is a constant interaction from heaven and earth. Our prayers go up before God. He answers them through a multitude of ways beyond our comprehension.
