I Am Taking Your Father Now
Phyllis Asks:
Hi Lucid,
I was in my room praying for my dad who was dying. I was praying for my family to be able to support each other in our time of sadness. We knew he didn’t have much time left. I couldn’t sleep all night…
I was sitting in the darkness when all of a sudden there was a voice that came into my room. The room didn’t light up or anything but I had a conversation with either an angel or perhaps it was Heavenly Father. This is what was said, “Phyllis, I am taking your Father now,” and I said,” Why?” and then I heard the voice say, “Because I need him more than you do right now.”
When this conversation was done I got up off my bed and went upstairs. As I got to the top of the steps, my Mom was just hanging up the phone. I looked at her and she said, “The hospital just called to say Dad had passed away.” I almost fainted and my Mom caught me before I almost fell backwards down the stairs.
First, why didn’t my mother get the visitation in stead of me?
The second thing is, I dreamt of my Father over and over again. I would go to the funeral home and would go into some room where he would be sitting there in a bathtub taking a bath like he was going some where. I would ask him, “What are you doing?” and he would say, “I’m getting ready to go,” then the dream would end, and I would wake up! It seemed so real!
Was he telling me that he was getting ready to meet our Father above? My Dad was a good Christian man. What do you think?
Thanks Lucid for your site, I love it!
Lucid’s Thoughts:
Wow Phyllis, that sounds like it was a neat experience in the sense of being personally told of your father’s passing. You may have been chosen for a few reasons. First of all your extrasensory perception may have been more advanced than your moms. She may have disregarded the message as a voice in her head. Maybe the question should be; why not you?
Whatever the reason, you were chosen and that in itself is gift.
Now, as for your dream. I think it was very literal. Being in the bath tub represents washing away the old, etc. and if he was preparing to move to the next level/cross over, it only makes sense that he would be cleansing himself.
I think it was his way or your way of accepting his passing and moving on peacefully.
Thank you for sharing your experience!

I have to agree with you Lucid – the bathing is usually a literal cleansing – for example baptism.

Very cool! I agree with Lucid, you may have been chosen because you were more open or maybe your Mom received the same message, however chose not to hear or not to discuss it.
You are trully blessed to have received the message.

I think maybe it was your own angel giving you a heads up. They receive messages and then relay them to us. I also think it was a blessing to have a fore warning.
Have you heard anything since? Or dreamt about your dad?

Hi Everyone!
Cindy- Yes, and baptism is a good example!
Mark- I think your right because so many times we just disregard unknowingly the messages that are sent to us.
Jami- Most likely it was her angel passing along the message.
Thanks for your add on’s! I am sure Phyllis will be delighted to hear from everyone!

That sounded like a specail visitation. My parents are still alive so I can not relate with the pain of a the loss of a parent, but my heart still goes out to you!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their feedback into what I wrote. My Dad was very special to me, so was my Mom. She passed on about 13 years later. I didn’t tell her until almost 2 years about my visitation. I asked if anything like that had happened to her that night and she must not have because she didn’t say yes.
Around that time in my life I was having extrasensory episodes but I really didn’t know of anyone who did. My sisters knew of things that happened that I told them, but nobody else. I saw things, I wasn’t scared by it, I just didn’t know what was going on. My closest friends and I kept on having seances. My girlfriend’s Dad passed away first, then my Father. We kept on trying to get our Fathers to be there. Both men were very close friends. I know for a fact that they were there. We used a method of tapping 2 times for no and 3 taps for yes. We all had to remove our shoes and each of us had to put our feet on the person next to them. We were a group of about 10. Some one would ask the questions and then we would wait for an answer. Oh I forgot to mention we all took our shoes off so no one could play a prank! We all put our shoes behind our chair. As we progressed with the questions and answers we were being directed by the strong tapping noises. A message came thru very clearly that this was to be our last time doing this! It was my Dad communicating with us. He said it was not a good thing to be doing and said to stop, he wouildn’t be here anymore! That was the last time we did it. Now here is the clincher…. my girlfriends husband had lost his leg in a trucking accident and wore a false leg. It was one of my feet that were laying on top of his… the fake one. When we put the lights back on, he couldn’t find his shoes. They were on the other side of the kitchen in the corner where we heard the tapping.
That was the last time we ever did the seancing.
Lucid, did you ever hear of anything like that before and are the spirits from across the veil able to do that?
I know this was long but it is a good read. I swear these words I wrote are true!
