Talking Relatives who have Passed, Angels, etc

I grew up with lapse Catholic parents. We didn't go to church, but, one side of my family was very devout Catholic so I was around it. I am now finding my place in religion and have a phenomenal Methodist friend giving me books to read. I'm reading the New Testament, watching sermons, etc.

But, I also grew up with what my family calls the "Irish gift." I have always been able to see, smell, hear, speak with some of my passed relatives. I do the same with some angels. I do not claim to be a medium. I do not try to conjure up spirits. I have always known that these encounters are through God. They are always here to share love and make me feel God's love. My family is used to me saying someone is here.

There is no reason to doubt me because a lot of times they say things that only mean something to someone else - I don't understand why they are telling me to say something but when I do, a family member will know exactly what I am talking about. My family has tested me dozens of times and I have always won. These are real experiences and are always through God.

I thought a lot of people did this. But, as I delve into Christianity, it appears people do not do this. It is a huge part of my connection with God. It is how God speaks to me.

Do you see, speak, hear, passed relatives or angels? Is it inherently wrong, if I am not conjuring them up, they come when they want. I cannot imagine not dping this. It is God.

I do not want to say something offensive to Christians so should I not say anything about this?

Thanks!!
