Can you tell if something is going to happen before it happens?

Have you ever experienced this when you get that feeling that something is going to happen before it happens? I am not sure if people think it is a gift or a hindrance. I had this feeling years ago, I just somehow could not shake the feeling that something felt wrong, I had talked to everyone everything seemed fine till a few days later, a friend I had worked with was killed in an auto accident. It has never happened since that was 8 years ago, has this happened to any of you?

Hi, My friend has this type of feeling. He feels something different before something wrong happens. co incidents may happen for few times but happens to him many times. I feel it surprising power he has.

I have several times can feel things will happen several days or several hours before it happens. But in most cases, I can not feel anything. I think it is a good talent for me to prepare enough for it. When I feel something important will happen in my life, I will feel that I can get or lose something, so when it really happen, I have enough ability to deal with it.

Hi dandano7 That is great you have the ability to deal with it, I have only had it happen the once but perhaps if it happens again I will feel more prepared.

Hi bingskee Yes that is how I felt something just was not right. And for me too it was bad news.

Other people say that before it happen, when you sleep you will dream about it. Other says that some things that will happen has preliminary signs. But in my opinion we can't predict what will happen the next day, month or year, only God Knows.

Hi Jembizz I agree only God knows everything however dreams or gut feelings can sometimes be sent from God (maybe as warnings). Thank you for responding.

i there Lauren, you must be sensitive to these things. I think it is similar to hunches When you feel that something is up and often you do not even know what that feeling is, but usually you are just uncomfortable. Here in the Philippines we call it "kutob" or Forebonding, Presume, Gutfeel in English (i guess) and most of the time it is a negative feeling that one has with no specifics but then there will be a news of an event happening - someone you knew most of the time. I have never had such a strong emotion myself but my mom usually has.

Hi chiyosan, So interesting that it is a negative feeling because that is how it felt for me. I am what you would call a very sensitive person I always have compassion for people and I sometimes feel their pain even thoa it is not happening to me directly I almost live throught it with them. I have had to learn to sometimes "shut this off" because I find it very draining. Thanks for the feedback.

Do you mean like deja vu? Because yes, I have. Once I got up in the morning and had the thought I would be in an auto accident. And later that day, I was. But it was not my fault, so it's not like subconsciously I did it to prove myself right. lol It was the other driver at fault. It happened a couple other times, but I don't really know why it happens.

Hi AmbiePam No not deja vu, deja vu is more like when you go somewhere and you think you have been there but you have not that is dejavu, what I mean is a gut feeling that something is just not right and it may not happen at that moment but in my case days later.

For me, it is not possible to say what happens before it happens. For me, every new moment is a surprise. Tomorrow is always unpredictable. Actualy, it is good that we cannot predict the future. If we could predict the future, then there would be no surprise in life. Then life would have been like a drama which we ourselves had written.

I have had this happen before. My husband was working and I just got a bad feeling something was not right. Then, the phone rang and my stomach dropped. My husband cut his hand on a saw at work, and he was on the way to the hospital. It was really bad, he cut muscles and tendons. He had surgery and went to therapy for months trying to get the hand to work again. Such a mess. His hand will never be the same but at least he can use it now... Things like this have happened to me a few different times. If my gut tells me something I definitely listen to it.

Hi lovingmybabies, Exactly what I mean I would say you and your husband are close that is why you are connected, I have heard about this with twins as well, one can feel if there is something wrong with the other. You are right always listen to your gut that is our God given gift!

Hello Lau ! There is some truth about this ! I have heard so many stories like what you are telling now. This is a gift friend from God and not all are given this kind of gift ! You need to take good care of it and not to misuse ! You need also to see paranormal so they can explain to you why you are seeing different things and how to develop this kind of gift.

Hi Angelpink Thankyou for that amazing response, I never seen it from this point of view it actually scared me when this happened, I really do not want this feeling again, I do dream a lot, of people who have passed away these however are always good dreams and they are dreams I always remember. They are always commmunicating to me.
