This week, Paige and Joel are back with more stories of messages from Heaven! This episode includes stories about a butterfly landing in a bride's bouquet after her father passed away, a man receiving a sign from his daughter at her funeral, and a grandson being visited by his late grandmother in a dream. Some may say that these are just coincidences. However, with God, there are no coincidences. It is only with open hearts that we can see and hear the messages that God and our loved ones send us each day. These messages are a reminder of the hope we have of reuniting with them in Heaven.
