Kristi Possible NDE

Experience Description

I was born two months premature and weighed 3 lbs. 5 oz. I was placed in an incubator and there was an accident - a fire that began while a nurse was on her coffee break or they were changing shifts. I survived the fire and being so small I do believe that I was visited by someone or some being from the other side when this took place because of the way certain 'talents' and preferences have stayed with me in this life from the very beginning.

I grew up in a home where religion was viewed as a crutch for the weak. Both of my parents claimed to be Agnostics but my mom did allow me to investigate religious organizations when I was in my pre-teens.

However, ever since I can remember, I prayed to God every night. I did not pick this up from any relative or friend. I remember having the surest certainty that there was a God, that he personally watched over me and that he and the others with Him were incredibly beautiful. For my entire childhood and young adulthood, I could find no art - drawings, statues, sculpture - that could even come close to the beauty I knew instinctively was with Him.

I remember being very young and looking at ceramic or ornamental angels in stores and just sighing with frustration that they just couldn't come close.

The other sense that has been a part of my life has been a stronger than normal perception or intuition that has guided me. I could sense before some things happened, received detailed dreams with spiritual information for myself and praise. I would be guided with specific directions that I could 'hear' but not with my ears, but with my mind. I know this might sound crazy, but my parents, who didn't believe in anything but here/now, would come to me to 'see' where an object was that they could not find. I found that if I was not prideful and was only motivated to love/help others that the perceptions would flow more often and be clearer. The moment that I became childishly proud - the connection would be pulled.

I began to listen to this intuition/perception/guidance to a point that I could feel a person/his or her emotional state and concerns remotely. I would know who it was by the feeling of their personality or 'soul' in the center of my chest. The people that I trusted would let me ask them questions to verify what I perceived and I became better at understanding what I was being shown.

The upside to all of this is that I love life, God and all of His creatures and the people here on our planet. The downside is that because I attuned with this so much, some people are not able to be my friend because of it, or the fact that I am kind of 'child-like' and 'simple' in the way I just love and want to be loved, is a bit too much for most people. The experience allowed me to develop a strong connection with the Heavenly Father, the Savior and the Spirit. As I age, I find that the experiences here in this life are indescribably important. The smallest thing that we do - a smile, a hug, obeying the small voice that says to call someone - helps and influences others. Thank you for listening!

Are there one or several parts of your experience that are especially meaningful or significant to you? I know that the items I have mentioned appear incredible but I am offering these up to see if there are others with similar experiences that you could fit this with to surmise truth about the nature of our existence, etc. I am going to mention one last area that I was gifted in through how I came into being here. When I am feeling the special state of love/light and peace - that is when I 'know' things that are more than perceived by me five senses. In addition, it has allowed me to help animals - even as small as a moth! For example, my in-laws were chasing a moth around the house with a newspaper. I felt its fear clearly! I stood still, extended my finger and told it: 'It's alright. I won't hurt you.' He flew to my finger and held on while I walked to the door and opened the screen to let him fly out. My in-laws' jaws dropped but my husband just smiled.

What do you believe about the reality of your experience now? Experience was definitely real

At any time in your life, has anything ever reproduced any part of the experience? No

Is there anything else that you would like to add about your experience? I hope that even though I don't have a conscious memory of nearly dying and meeting someone, etc. that you will consider what I've lived/gained from how I came here so that we can see if there are similarities to those who experienced NDE's. I almost forgot to mention that I have had OBEs at different points in my lifetime. These were not positive ones and felt as if I was under some sort of spiritual attack.

Are there any other questions that we could ask to help you communicate your experience? No, thank you.
