The people who crucified Jesus didn't ask for it either and He prayed, *Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.*
She did the right thing.
Welcome home.
I know how good it is to come home after an experience like that.
I’ll be continuing to pray for you and a speedy recovery.
Welcome back!
Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car cest à Toi quappartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Ian McCormack’s incredible true story who had box jellyfish shock and had after-death experience.
Welcome back! Good to hear you’re on the mend.
God Bless
I'll work on it. Then 40 years from now, you can show The Mrs. Don-o Hospital to the great-great grandchildren.
God bless you
For thein is the power, and the glory, forever.
Amen.
But God asked her to. Therefore...
I am gobsmacked to learn that you were so ill and somehow it escaped my notice — was there an earlier thread? I couldn’t pray for you then, but I surely can now. I’m so relieved that you were spared, and also that a person of your talent for articulation has been given a sign. I know you will ponder it for years to come, and will use it for the good. May God bless you profoundly not only with Divine health, but also with Divine wisdom and guidance, now and for the rest of your life.
Yes, though I certainly know that praying to created beings in Heaven is not in Scripture, or Scriptural, and hope all your faith is in the Lord Jesus to save you on His account, and thus serve Him out of gratitude.
But we want the best for you now also.
We bless Thee O Lord, our Healer and Savior, and we adore Thee.
With the saints in Heaven we pray, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
Your writing is brilliant and a joy to read, even in that scary, intense story.
I’m glad He saved you and I hope you stay healthy and write a book or two!
What a happy way to finish my day,welcome back!! I was getting pretty worried since your postings were few and far between and I didn’t want to question too much for fear I would learn that you weren’t progressing as I had hoped. But you were probably using all energies to recover your health. So glad your back home and with us!! I just thanked God for your return!!
Glad to hear you’re back home and on the mend. You’ve been through quite enough for one person lately :-)
Welcome back.
2) Sincere thanksgiving you have come back and shared this.
3) Another confession. Back in my younger days I'd read C.S. Lewis's God in the Dock and only knew Anscombe as the one who defeated Lewis in a debate -- the account I read said that when they asked her what happened, she leaned back, *lit up a cigar*, and said, "I won."
Little did I know then (I was Protestant) that she was in fact a devout Catholic, with *five* children...
4) This vision of yours is dovetailing with some other reading I am doing (Bede's A History of the English Church and People) in which others have returned from near death preaching the necessity for repentance.
Again, prayers will start for you and include thanksgiving.
Jesus on the cross, and St. Stephen whilst being stoned, serve as counterexamples to your contention.
