Experience Description

It started, I was, I want to say 'floating', but it felt more like I was being pulled backwards through space I was not scared I felt very peaceful. I could see the earth and it was getting further away I could see the planets going by me and I could see the stars. At this point is when I was told, but I didn't hear a voice, why everything was and especially a lot about the earth, which I cannot remember today. I just remember having this knowing of all things and I looked at the earth smiled and said to myself almost like a light bulb going off, 'Oh, I get it.' I understood and it was very beautiful and there was no sense of time as I was moving through space. As I got to a certain point, my body turned although I was not aware of my body and never actually looked down so I don't know. As my body turned, I felt like there was someone there but didn't see anything but something was communicating with me telepathically and every thought was instant. What the conversation was I don't remember.

I looked ahead and there was a vast almost panoramic line of light stretched across space. I could see blackness above it and blackness below. As I got closer to this light, which looked like the sun shining through a thick opaque type of glass, it was very comforting and not painful to look at like the sun. As I got further is when I had the overwhelming sense of my body absorbing all of this light, it engulfed me, it washed me, it filled me up with such love I cannot explain there is no word stronger than love here on earth to describe it. I know now that this was God. As I got closer, I could see silhouette shapes of people all lined up along the vastness of this light and that was it.

I woke up in the morning and said to myself well that was a weird dream and I didn't tell anyone for a long time because I thought they might think I was a little cuckoo I had never heard of these experiences before. I then moved into my mom's house with my husband and two children and I believe I may have been very early in my pregnancy with my second son when this happened. We moved in and all was good. I decided to confide in my mom about what I had experienced and she didn't have much to say besides 'wow'. It is very hard to try to explain it to people. She came to me one day and said my grandmother bought her a book it was called '90 Minutes in Heaven' my grandmother had no idea about my experience.

I read this book and as I read, I got to the part when he is enveloped in this light with his indescribable word of overwhelming love. My eyes welled up my whole body tingled and I thought to myself, 'Oh my gosh this is exactly what happened to me.' I said to my mother, 'Could something have possibly happened to me in my sleep? Did I die in my sleep?' I became very upset about this because I don't know what happened and the thought of me dying in my sleep was quite scary. I feel fine and have no health problems. I have not shared my story with many besides my close family and friends. I know what I experienced. I felt the love of God and would not lie about something like that. I am a born again Christian and believe in Jesus and God. I am not afraid to die anymore.

Experience was definitely real At first I thought it was a dream and never really thought about it but always wondered why this happened to me. I have no idea what it is like to be in heaven, so when I read the book '90 Minutes in Heaven' I was astonished at the similarities. That is when I had realized that this is what happened to me and I became well aware of my experience and talked about it frequently with my family and have always wondered did I die in my sleep and come back?

What do you believe about the reality of your experience now? Experience was definitely real I know what happened; I felt things I have never felt, I knew things no one knows.

Is there anything else that you would like to add about your experience? I wish everyone can feel the love I felt even people who are not nice I want everyone to be there because we all came from there.
