Oh Chickie. My experience wasn't scary at all. It was absolutely heavenly but I have noticed from talking to other people who pass and then come back, It is such a highly charged emotional experience that there is no way of telling anyone without the tears turning on... Over the years (my experience being about 15 years ago) I've learned not to talk about it unless I really know someone personally. Otherwise the twilight zone music starts up and some doctor starts chasing me with a syringe and a straight jacket! HA! No, I just get looks. So now I make sure someone knows me very well before I tell them.
That was an awsome experience for him. Another thing. People who go through this passing and coming back experience change. It just changes them. I'm happy he talked to your husband. He shared what he went through and there must be a reason for him to do that. We don't always know why God does what he does, but there is always a reason. It's just not always aparent right away what that reason is. I've realized reasons for things happening to me in "hindsight" most times. Like I said in my post last week. It's hard to understand when you're going through it. It wouldn't surprise me if there were a terrible evil vs. good war going on here right now. Look at our whole world. Do you think things have changed for good?
I left my body too. Maybe some day I can talk about it here. I'm just happy I found this place You and Luise started. I feel safe and accepted here and I love that feeling.
I would love to hear your story.
It is true that people rarely accept stories like this but they do happen.
I had an experiance. I was very worried about something concerning my health.
I had fallen asleep on a Saturday afternoon and I woke up but could not move. I was in a trance and I had a vision of the lord and he reached down and cupped his hand in mine.
It was not scary just awesome. I never speak about this unless I feel the need to. There must be a reason why I am doing so now.
I had a friend who was ill with lung cancer and I phoned her one day and said"I dont know why I have to tell you this" and related my experiance.
She wept and I just allowed her to cry. Somehow she needed reassurance that there was a God.
I have repeated this to very few people and never done so publically.
One other time I told someone this was to a Methodist minister (86 years old).
It was at a market. He was talking to me at my stall.
He turned around and walked away, without saying a word , to the stall opposite me and kept his back turned as if he wanted to hide from me.
My immediate reaction was "He thinks I am nuts"
I think he was on the verge of tears. He turned round and walked back to me and said"I cannot tell you what you have done for me today"
He died shortly afterwards.I think even ministers need reassurance.
