Be who ever you want
You want to become a Ghost?I have always wanted to die in my sleep and going around like casper.And help and be friends with people in my town.With God's help.Weird huh?
How do you see people become friend with you, if they can not see you or if they see you, how would you interact with them?

In my first message.I said I wanted God's help.With all the problems of being a ghost.

I know you seeking Gods help. But my question would then be, why would God want to help you become a Ghost instead of enlighten you, so you could be in heaven with God?In my first message.I said I wanted God's help.With all the problems of being a ghost.
Isn't ghost further away from God then human beings?

Many believers in ghosts say they can be seen, heard, and even interact with physical objects if they have enough energy to do so. They also claim you can interact via EVP's. Another common belief is that ghosts tend to result from tragic or tramatic death.

Or your ideas regarding God are simply speculation and presumption.

Yes am aware of this. I just was a bit surprised that a human being want to become a ghost after he leave this life.
I did not try to critique, I was just trying to understand him more.

I have only my own understanding of God. And I am sure my in understanding is far from what a God truly is. So yes I do lack wisdom about God, and I certainly do not know what a God think.

Why wouldn't some desire to stay behind to help others out of selfless compassion?
Spirit of Light
Be who ever you want
Stay as a human being yes, that I have heard about, in Buddhism it is called Bodhisattva, they do stay behind to help others to gain enlightenment.
But as I said, I do not understand how a ghost can help a human being.
Could of course be that there are some things I don't know about being a ghost.

I thought if i die in my sleep and want to do the things I mentioned in my first post.God could use his power of being all knowing.And help me in every way possible.

Can not God help you in your life now?
Seems like you want to still participate in wordly affairs without the drawbacks of a corporeal existance after you die. Would be kind of cool for a little while, honestly. In the end people wouldn't know they got help, and they wouldn't even knew you existed, though. Sounds like it would get lonely...

Apparently, based on your posts, what you want and what G-d seems to want are totally different. Maybe it is time you stopped trying to get G-d to do what you want and began, instead, trying to live the kind of life G-d intends for you to live.Yes he can.

That's one way to get superpowers. So no bite by a radioactive spider or going for a walk on a gamma testing range?

I think it would be wise to restrict this to a fantasy, and not an obsessive desire that has to come true according to your expectations.
Because when you do that, and God doesn't give you that because He feels you deserve something better, you're at risk treating reality as something detestable, causing you to turn away from Him.
