In the middle of the night, I awoke with a severe migraine. I'd experienced occasional migraines since I was a teenager, but this particular migraine was extremely painful and I should have sought treatment at the Emergency Room. However, since I had very young children at the time, I didn't want to wake them or my husband, so I attempted to treat myself. I took my prescription migraine medication, but it did not provide any relief from the pain. Instead of waiting an hour before taking the second dose as the instructions advised, I waited 20 minutes and took the second dose. I also took two over-the-counter pills for migraine. I have always been very sensitive to medications, but at the time I did not consider this. I was only focused on relieving the intense pain.
After taking the medications, I became very
sleepy and returned to bed. When I drifted off to sleep, I would
awaken by gasping for breath. I quickly realized that when I drifted
off to sleep, I stopped breathing. I was fearful I would fall asleep
and die. I said a very simple prayer, 'Dear God, please don't let me
die. I want to be a mother and a wife.' As I said the prayer, I
doubted God would hear me. At that time in my life, I felt
insignificant. I was not sure God existed, and if He did, I didn't
think he would know me. But I was about to be proven wrong.
Immediately after praying, I felt a presence come over my bed. I was
lying on my back with my eyes closed, but I could sense a shadow had
been cast as something moved over my body and then stood next to my bed.
As soon as I felt the presence, I was frightened and I heard a Bible
verse in my mind, 'An angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of
the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.' I realized
I had received the Bible verse telepathically and an angel had arrived
to help me.
Then it felt as if the angel slipped his hand directly into
my stomach. I felt a sensation unlike anything I'd ever experienced.
Static was moving in my stomach and throughout my torso. I also saw in
my mind's eye a vison of black and white static, as like on a tv set
without reception. At the same time, I felt my deceased father's
presence and I could hear him speaking into my right ear. He repeatedly
said, 'You're going to be ok, you're going to be ok, you're going to be
ok.'
As the angel stood to my left and my father spoke to me from my right, a
very large, powerful presence hovered over the length of my body. When
I noticed the large presence, my inner vision was changed to that of a
crystal blue waterfall. The water was sparkling clear and the most
beautiful blue I have ever seen. As I marveled at the sight of the
water, the static sensation in my torso dissipated and was replaced with
a sensation of liquid love rushing into my heart. The love was so pure
and overwhelming that I immediately began to weep. The liquid love
flowed through my heart and filled up my chest cavity to the point that I
could not expand my lungs to inhale. I was aware of having difficulty
breathing, but it did not concern me.
I was so blissed out from the
love, that nothing else mattered. I had the realization of, 'This must
be God.' It was so large, infinite, and powerful, that I just knew it
could have no other name than God. Once I realized I was in the
presence of God, my next thought was, 'Oh no, God is going to judge me
for taking too much medication.' I waited for the judgement. It did
not come. I moved into the flow of God, searching for His judgement.
No judgement was there. Not a speck. Only pure, adoring love was in
the infinite flow of God.
At this point I lost awareness of my body. I did not recall I was a
mother, wife, daughter, friend. I had no recollection of life on earth.
I merged into an infinite presence that utterly and completely adored
me. God did not speak words to me. The love said it all. I felt as if
I was an awareness, a being without a name or identity, and I was
expanding to the size of the cosmos. I was home. I realized home was
where I wanted to remain forever and in my blissed-out state, it took
all the energy I could muster to telepathically communicate, 'Take me.'
With these two words, I was attempting to communicate that I wanted to
remain in the pure love forever.
As my presence continued to expand in a
state of bliss, it felt as if I was nearing a point where I would
explode into a billion atoms and forever be with God. I mentally
prepared myself for the explosion and gladly welcomed it. At the very
last millisecond before the explosion of my being and my total emergence
into infinity, God pulled me out of Heaven and I landed with a shocking
jolt into my body.
I lay in my bed, dazed and confused. My hair and pillow were soaked
from the tears I had cried as the love consumed my heart and spirit. I
have no idea how long I was with God, but when I returned to my body, it
was completely healed. The medication had been removed. I was
breathing normally. I was not lethargic. And my head felt normal.
Usually after having a migraine, my head would be very sore to the point
that brushing my hair would be unbearable. Now I could push against my
skull and feel no pain or soreness.
I attempted to process what had just happened. I knew that I had experienced something beyond any earthly experience I'd ever had. I told myself that I would allow myself to believe I had experienced a miracle, if when I awoke in the morning, I remained pain-free. Eventually I fell asleep and when I awoke in the morning, my body had no after-effects of a migraine or medication. I felt wonderful.
