My mom died recently. It's been tough without her. I know this is gonna sound silly, but my five year old daughter asked me something that got my mind whirling. Can Nana see everything we do from hevean? Does she see me when i pick my nose? Does she see me when i am in the bathroom? I am twenty five, but i can't help wondering my self can she? Is this a normal thing? Can my mom see all this? If so is she watching when i have sex or when i'm shaving my legs in the tub? We brought her ashes home, which kinda wierded me out a tiny bit too.

I am sorry to hear about your mom. I pray your grief is short, and joy memories are many.
The word says in Hebrews, that there is a cloud of witnesses cheering us on in our spiritual walk.
I don't believe that the ones in heaven can see us in our mundane lives but that since our spirit is eternal now, they can see the things that we do spiritually. So when we get saved, pray for someone lost, struggle with spiritual matters, yes they can be a part of that.
cheering us on!

The bible says that there is going to be a resurrection during judgement day. John 5:28 says Do not marvel at this because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out. Those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who did bad things to a resurrection of judgement.
Matthew 12:41 men of Nineveh will rise in judgement day or something like that and talks of others who will rise in the judgement day and condem those in Jesus day. Even ones from Sodom and Gamorrah some will come back.
So until the 1000 year rein of Christ and the judgement day they are sleeping in the grave.
Ecc. 9:5 says the living are conscience that they will die but the dead are conscience of nothing at all.

There are different schools of thought on this one. Most people believe that when a person goes to heaven, there are no more sorrows. If a person could look down on someone and see their pain what would be the peace in that? I don't have a pat answer for you, but I hope this helped you a little bit. While God might be able to look upon us from heaven I doubt any others there are allowed to observe.

What happens when a person dies?
The spirits of both the righteous and the wicked return to God. Their bodies return to dust.
"Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it." Ecclesiastes 12:7.
Answer: The body turns to dust again, and the spirit goes back to God, who gave it. The spirit of every person who dies--whether righteous or wicked--returns to God at death.
3. What is the "spirit" that returns to God at death?
There is nothing mysterious about the spirit that returns to God at death. It is the breath of life.
"The body without the spirit ["breath," see margin] is dead." James 2:26. "The spirit of God ["the breath which God gave him," see margin] is in my nostrils." Job 27:3.
Answer: The spirit that returns to God at death is the breath of life. Nowhere in all of God's book does the "spirit" have any life, wisdom, or feeling after a person dies. It is the "breath of life" and nothing more.
4. What is a "soul"?
These four people are four souls.
"And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Genesis 2:7.
Answer: A soul is a living being. A soul is always a combination of two things: body plus breath. A soul cannot exist unless body and breath are combined. God's Word teaches that we are souls.
5. Do souls die?
"The soul that sinneth, it shall die." Ezekiel 18:20. "Every living soul died in the sea." Revelation 16:3.
Answer: According to God's Word, souls do die! We are souls, and souls die. Man is mortal (Job 4:17). Only God is immortal (1 Timothy 6:15, 16). The concept of an undying, immortal soul goes against the Bible, which teaches that souls are subject to death.
6. Do good people go to heaven when they die?
"All that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth." John 5:28, 29. "David ... is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day." "For David is not ascended into the heavens." Acts 2:29, 34. "If I wait, the grave is mine house." Job 17:13.
Answer: No, people do not go either to heaven or hell at death. They go to their graves to await the resurrection day.

Well the bible says there will be no tears or sadness in heaven. How happy could a person be if they were able to look down on the world and see every horrible thing that happens down here? No I think those that have gone on to heaven are protected from that and that they are busy doing whatever they do up there. We won't be idle in heaven. We will all be busy about our business, looking forward with great joy to the reunion with our loved ones.

If issues on your desires come genuine, usually, you're having Dream Premonitions. It from time to time doesnt continuously ensue as shown. yet is the easy idea of what would ensue. the total being abducted area would purely be a self wide awake worry. yet save a watch on it. commence a dream mag and once you awaken write down each and every ingredient out of your dream in it, seek for a connection between desires. Write down what comes genuine and what doesnt.

Whether she can or not, whether so would or not is totally irrelevant, why?, because Moral/Immoral/Amoral states (Perceived human chosen 'rights & wrongs) are purely for lviing humans, the rest of this world in nature seems to run on Ethics. (Nature based rights & wrongs)
What I am getting at is that even if she did, no judgement or comment would be forthcoming, as the spirits let us run our lives as we wish, and they would not pass judgement.
So don't worry, I am sure she would be only too pleased to see you enjoy yourself to the upmost and live your life as you wish.

Bible never spoke of the dead watching us do all this stuff-it talks of praising in Heaven-not worrying about hear on earth. So have sex with your spouse and shave your legs in peace.

If your mom was a good person, which I'm sure she was, she is in heaven contemplating GOD, think of it this way , you now have one more of a reason to be good, so you may see her again in heaven when it's your turn to leave this world. You have an advocate in heaven.
