They come out of it as a different person, with a completely different take on life. Here are some lessons learned from people that encountered death and came back, from Guideposts:
· Heaven is Absolutely Real
In 1999, Dr. Mary C. Neal and her husband decided to kayak a section of the river in Chile. They had been kayaking for 20 years and were in the company of professionals. Ostensibly, they had nothing to worry about—until the unexpected happened. Mary rocketed down a waterfall and was submerged in 10 feet of water, pinned by her boat. Though trapped, she felt calm, embraced in Christ’s arms. She saw spiritual beings dressed in brilliant robes of love and a flower-lined pathway leading to a great domed structure. Mary was ready to leave this world, but she was told it was not her time.
“God loves us more than we can ever imagine…” Mary later told Mysterious Ways of her experience. “In addition to that, there's no question that I learned that God is real and present, working in our world. God's miracles are present if we look for them. Heaven is absolutely real.”
· Life Goes by in the Blink of an Eye
While ice climbing in Canada, then-21-year-old Peter Panagore succumbed to frostbite and hypothermia. He felt his soul sucked out of his body. Then he was floating and a giant gateway, 100 yards high and 70 yards wide, appeared. Peter wordlessly spoke to God and was given a choice to go through the gate or return to earth. Peter chose to go back.
The experience left him completely changed. He became a minister and today counsels the dying and grieving. Of his encounter with God, Peter recalled, “I couldn’t see God, and yet I could sense him winking at me. That’s the only human way I can describe it. A message he wanted me to know. This thing we call life, it’s the blink of an eye. But heaven, that’s a vision that spans eternity.”
· God is Always with Us
Diagnosed with two rare digestive disorders from a young age, Annabel Beam was used to pain. She spent most of her childhood in and out of hospitals. On the day of her NDE, Annabel and her family were coming back from a hard day at the hospital. Annabel told her mom she wanted to die so she could be with Jesus, away from the pain of her existence. Undeterred, Annabel’s sisters encouraged her to play.
Annabel was having more fun than she’d had in a long time when the unthinkable happened: She fell 30 feet into a hollow tree. While unconscious, she met Jesus and an angel. She awoke to find herself cured. Today, Annabel uses her platform to promote positivity and faith even in the bleakest moments. As she puts it, “I hope people learn that He is always faithful to you, and no matter how bad things get, he’s always with you.”
