Send us Fan MailCan someone on the other side of the veil reach us in the temple to help a living loved one? In this LDS (Latter-day Saint) episode, Tia Smith shares a tender, listener-submitted story of a thinning of the veil experience in the celestial room — and how a deceased young man seemed to reach through to get help for his struggling younger brother who is still living.The story comes from a friend of the channel who, after a sealing session, sat in the celestial room praying for parents he knew who had lost children — including a childhood friend who had died young. As he prayed for that friend on his mission in the spirit world, a clear, unexpected impression came: don't pray for me — pray for my brother. The younger brother, deeply affected by the accident that took his sibling years earlier, had spent much of his life estranged from faith and in hard circumstances. In that quiet exchange in the house of the Lord, the friend felt prompted to love the brother, be his friend, and trust that blessings were waiting for him when he was ready. He left the brother's name on the temple prayer roll — and not long after, the family received news that the brother had reached a turning point and sought help.Tia frames it around a theme close to her channel's heart: those beyond the veil are not gone or indifferent — they know us, they are concerned for us, and they help their own family members, sometimes reaching a willing heart to intervene for someone still living. She points to the celestial room as a place where heaven and earth meet, and encourages listeners to attend the temple, keep their lives in tune with the Spirit, and be open to receiving these promptings — because the help flows both directions across the veil.Q: Can a deceased loved one help someone who is still living?A: This episode shares a Latter-day Saint account suggesting they can — a young man who had died seemed to reach a friend in the temple's celestial room to ask for help for his living younger brother, who soon after reached a turning point. Tia Smith teaches that those beyond the veil know us, are concerned for us, and can be instruments of help for both the living and the dead.Q: Why do these experiences often happen in the temple?A: Tia describes the celestial room, and the temple generally, as a place where heaven and earth connect and the veil can be thin. She encourages attending the temple often — especially when you're missing someone who has passed — and living in tune with the Spirit, so you're open to receive impressions when they come.Q: What keeps us from receiving these promptings?A: Tia teaches it isn't about being perfect, but that things in our lives that pull us away from the Spirit can close our spiritual eyes and ears. When that happens, those on the other side who need help may turn to someone else who is ready to hear — so she encourages keeping our lives worthy of the Holy Ghost's companionship.▶️ WATCH & LISTEN🎬 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thinningoftheveil🌐 Website: https://www.thinningoftheveil.com🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinning-of-the-veil/id1753511394🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6jWCfMHkZXwnSwy2b98J4M🎵 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/a0a45561-d4c2-46d3-af8d-a1e967a21a25📖 BOOKPatterns of Revelation — Spiritual Foundations for Hearing God's Voice: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BW36MG9B📱 CONNECTInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinning.of.the.veilFacebook Group (Gathering of the Gatherers): https://www.facebook.com/groups/1429562078443774Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/thinningoftheveil💛 SUPPORT THE SHOWVenmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/thinningoftheveilPayPal: https://paypal.me/thinningoftheveil✉️ Have you had a thinning of the veil experience?
