Hi, what you are about to
read is that I'm not sure how you will take this,
but anyways, here it goes......
This happened in mid July of
1998. It was when my sister was visiting
over from Holland. I had been going through
some stressful times and was beginning to feel
it. It started I guess when we took her and
her family to go and see Niagra Falls, had a good
time there but I found that my breathing was a
little heavy and hard to catch my breath at
times. I would constantly be drinking
fluids to help with my throat. I was not
comfortable but soon we were on our way home.
It was the next day in the
evening that this whole episode took place, which
was a Saturday. I remember kneeling down
beside my bed before turning in and in tears
asking God to take the stress, the troubled
situations and to let him handle it, for I tried
and I could not, I was feeling pretty down
inside. After I had finished, I climbed
into bed and looked towards a peaceful night of
rest, hoping that the next day, things would be
cleared somehow. Then a voice wanted me to
read the Bible. I refused the first couple
of times, then with the persisting message, I
gave in, turned on the light and took out
my Bible. The Lord then directed me to
Psalms 86 and slowly I read the chapter.
What I read was different from other things that
I was directed to read for it talked of a
deliverance from the grave, protect my life,
teach me your ways, give me strength and so
on. I didn't understand but in short, I was
to find out.....
I closed the Bible and
pondered on it for a while, trying to figure out
why the Lord would want me to read that passage
and soon I drifted off to sleep.......
I found myself in a dark
cavern sort of place, cold and erie, it felt like
a place I did not wish to stay. I remember
looking up and seeing streaks of light flashing
across the sky all going in one direction.
It was dark and could make out only a few things
over to my left but soon came into view. I
also remember Tanya there and she was happy and
said "don't you know, Dad loves
watermelon". Why that was there, I
still don't know, then she disappeared. I
then noticed a woman over along the wall to the
left of me. She was in a crouched position,
protecting her head with her arms. I
remember she had short curly dark brown
hair. She was terrified for these
creatures, like the gargoles, with long hairy
arms with long boney fingers. They had
leathery like wings that protruded out from their
backs and their faces were complete evil,
horrible to look at. The grossness was
beyond description with fangs and skinny boney
large noses that hung over their chin.
Their eyes were red and deep with hatred. I
stood there and watched these things attacking
her when some banging noises caused me to turn
towards a set of heavy Iron doors. The
banging grew louder and suddenly they
shattered. There in front of me were these
things coming towards me! I remember
though, as they were coming, I felt no fear,
strange but I felt no fear. They lept onto
me and started to pull my hair and tug at my
arms. I remember saying nothing but only
the name "Jesus". The more they
pulled and tugged the louder I cried the name of
"Jesus" over and over Jesus, Jesus,
Jesus. I then noticed the ground beneath my
feet was moving some what, and I looked down to
see what was happening. I then realized
that the floor beneath me was beginning to
crumble and I seen the flames of Hell coming
up. I remember how my eyes widen but I
remained strong and at that time, I started to
scream the name of "Jesus" as loud as I
possibly could. "JESUS,
JESUS". I kept screaming his name and
feeling strong at the same time, my mind
continuously focused on the Lord. Then as
fast as you could possibly imagine, even faster
than a blink of an eye I was suddenly into
another sense of space. It was a vast large
space and I looked up and in front of me and
noticed a large bright light. Full of
purity and the Love that came from that light was
overwhelming. I remember looking at the
light and not having to squint or shield my eyes
even though the brightness could blind
anyone. I also remember looking at it and
thinking with one hand up to my face and the
other arm holding my arm and saying "don't
people see this just before they
die?". It was then I realized where I
was and that I had come face to face with the
Lord. A pure light, beautiful, warm, and a
sense of peace with a love beyond all
understanding. I couldn't try to describe
what kind of light it was but only what I felt
that what it was. I then longed to go to
the light and began my move towards the
light.....
My body at the time felt
weightless, like.... a spirit, I did not feel the
weight of my body anymore, I did not feel the
weight of breathing, it was so FREE of a feeling,
beautiful, like I floated along, it was
wonderful........Then I heard the voice of my
husband, calling......Doreen are you ok,
Doreen...........a few times more and as soon as
I turned towards him, it ended. He asked
are you alright? I answered, yes, I'm fine,
why? He looked like he seen a ghost and
then he shared with me what happened...
He said he noticed that my
complexion had changed to a grey in color and
that my lips had turned blue. He also said
that I had pretty well stopped breathing.
He said that I would gasp, breathe in, pause
for a minute or two, then I gargled another
breath, very short and he said that my breathing
was raspy, pretty rough. He said he tried
to shake me, but I did not respond, he continued
by saying my name over and over and gently
shaking me. I finally responded and he was
very much relieved......I was back!
I shared with him what had
happened and to where I was, I know now that I
need not be afraid of dying for it is like a
rebirth into his kingdom. You don't realize
what your body is doing, you are free from any
discomfort that your body is giving you. It
is like you are separated from
yourself. I know now why the Lord
wanted me to read Psalm 86 for it was to save me
from the evil one.. I have learned not to be
afraid and to trust him for everything and to be
more in tune with what God is trying to say to
us. Teach me to listen and to do what you
ask of me Lord, for with you all things are good
and safe. How I long to see you face to
face and to be with you through eternity.
Deliver me Lord and burn with-in me, to renew me
with your living water. Purify my soul and
use me to help others find you. I am
yours..........this is my prayer, my goal, to
know him through his word and to be as Jesus
would want me to be. I know I'm a sinner
and full of shame and guilt. Have mercy on
me and give me your peace. Thank-you Lord
for loving me and taking the time to correct me
when I'm wrong. I know he is not done with
me and has a long way to go yet. I long for
your presence Lord. Show me the road map to
your heart so you can envelope me forever in your
Love. Thank-you.....and fill me to
overflowing so I can flow onto others of what you
have done for me. Teach me to Love others
as you have Loved your Son, so that the Love that
is found in you, may be found in me.
Thank-you Lord......Amen
