The final pain was great, the breathing became harder and harder. I kept going in and out of consciousness. I saw loved ones gathered around me. People I've loved all my life, my heart was theirs.
The life I lived wasn't great but believing in God made it better. My final thoughts were unclear yet my soul was hard at work with the holy spirit. I saw a vision of what I didn't know but somehow understood.
People around me seemed to be crying. Things were a mess, yet somehow I felt peaceful and sustained. From what I saw with the sadness of everyone around me, I knew it was time for me to leave this world.
At first it was dark and then there was light. Light so beautiful and radiant it would've hurt my human eyes. I didn't go alone if that's what everyone thinks. I was guided by more than one person or angels I believe.
I looked around and finally felt complete. Holiness had made me who I was to be, a defeater of death. The door was small, but inside it was vast and beautiful. More beauty than I ever imagined. Then the hug I always dreamed of finally arrived. It was Jesus himself wrapping his arms around me. He said, "welcome home we've been waiting a long time."
I wanted to leave so I could tell everyone who was surrounding my bed. Tell them don't worry cause I'm here at the place where others we have loved have gone.
I remember being in places on Earth where thousands of people have gathered for special events, but never like this! A long line of people gathered to cheer for me and welcome me home. Then in front of me stood the God of my dreams, the God of my faith and the God who gave me my first breath. He stopped and gave me a hug and said "today and forevermore this is all yours." I then bowed and began my life as a complete heavenly being and a lover of he who created me.
God himself introduced me to everyone there and then to those of my family I never met while living on Earth. He told me of a great surprise he had in store for me. Walking down the road I saw four people coming. I couldn't make them out until they came closer. I leaped for joy when I realized who they were.
Two sets of grandparents. The two men I knew well from my past life and two women. One a grandmother I never got the chance to get to know and one I never met before. They hugged me and told me how proud they were of me. Two dogs nipped at my heels. Two that I truly missed. One a brown poodle and the other a golden dog who got really excited and barked a lot!
Life here is what the race I was running back on Earth was all about. I have no fear now, just peace. I wished for this all my life and now it is here forever. A place where there is no tomorrow because it will always be today. Always the present. What an honor it is to finally get to be honored by my Savior and the God who created me. I stand in awe!
That would be exactly what I would write to others in a letter from heaven. I would tell them to believe and get ready to be wowed like they never been before.
Many here on Earth are against God, against anything that they cannot see or touch. I've seen to many things here to not have any other reason but to believe.
I believe because I was made to believe. It was instilled in my soul to know of my creator and that my life would always follow him no matter what! I believed yesterday, I believed today and I will believe till my final breath.
Amen!
