Book Description

November 8, 1999
Do our loved ones who have died still care about us? Is God concerned that we are grieving?

Vera P. Glenn has put together a collection of true stories from people who have been dealing with the death of someone they care about. In His mercy, God permitted brief but powerful communications between the natural and spiritual worlds -- confirmations that life and love continue after death. We are always being thought about and loved from the spiritual realm, and our Heavenly Father constantly desires to comfort us. Sometimes that comfort takes the form of dreams or of other glimpses into the life beyond.

You will be amazed at the varity of comforting messages here described. For each story, Vera has chosen one or more quotations from the writings of Emanuel Swedenborg, which speak about elements of the spiritual world that are demonstrated in the dreams or experiences.

"Many people I have known have had similarly simple, yet profound and beautiful affirmations that there is a heaven and that people do become angels." Rev. Jeremy Simons


Editorial Reviews

Review

"A Dove at the Window" is a beautiful book for the soul. Vera Glenn's collection of people's personal loving encounters with heavenly visitors will give comfort to all who have lost loved ones. The book also contains many precious quotations from Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) about the life after death and the connection between heaven and earth. The mixture of personal stories and quotations are uplifting and enlightening. I recommend this book for everyone, not only because of its hopeful message, but it is a delightful adventure to read. -- Grant R. Schnarr, author of Return to the Promised Land and Spiritual Recovery

This review is from: A Dove at the Window: Living Dreams and Spiritual Experiences, with passages from the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg (Paperback)
Most people who have had someone close to them die long to know they are well. This book confirms what the bereaved know in their hearts - that their loved one still lives. This book contains reassuring confirmations of this belief through dreams and other exper\theiences of a variety of people in a variety of experiences with a common belief that there is a life to come where we will be reunited with those we love.
