Thanks for posting this article. I have heard many stories like this and I have read all of Dr. Moody’s books on near-death experiences. It is amazing how consistent all these stories are.
“This light was just so peaceful, and it felt like home. I could sense every single person that had passed away before me standing there.”
Everyone she ever knew was there?? They all made it to wonderful, peaceful heaven!? She must have lived among saints!Or does everyone get to go?
Hmmm lilies are deadly for cats, too. Of course, all cats go to Hell. *ducking*
For anyone interested in a conservative Biblical analysis of a variety of near-death experiences, Dr. Mark Hitchcock has done a very interesting study:

“Julia says that she completely re-evaluated her life after her shocking experience, and has been left with a new psychic awareness that allows her to see into other people's souls.”
A. Heart doesn’t explode with anaphylactic shock.
B. i encounter deceased friends/relatives (most recently my late eldest son) in dreams damn near every night.
NDE/OOBE Ping!
it’s why hospitals no longer allow flowers ...
There is an established institution the has studied and tracked the near death experiences, world wide, for decades. It’s called NDERF or something like that. I admit there are charlatans out there who exploit this to sell books. No doubt. And I take this story with a major grain of salt. But the data shows too many documented cases, over time and geography, that are remarkably similar. People who recount seeing things they couldn’t have seen and being accurate. There’s something to it.
When I died I was with Jesus and he was as real as if he was standing in the room. It was very peaceful.
I find it a little odd you have to be near death to visit heaven.
Her description is accurate, but very biased based upon her individual perceptions.
Any being without a physical body can present itself to you as anyone you expect to see.
In my NDE, most beings did not take on human shapes. They eere just golden egg shaped balls of consciousness. You existed in them, and they in you.
Communication was through epiphanies.
There are many levels of Heaven. Most souls go to the lower level that I call the Recycling Heaven. There are higher levels for those who have achieved Transcendence.
The higher you go, the greater the Bliss, Love and Light. Beyond words of description.
NDE accounts may not be heaven itself but more like a scenic overlook on the way—an intermediate experience this side of eternity.
Just because someone is briefly out of the body doesn’t mean they’ve reached the final destination. The peace and light they describe could be a threshold glimpse or even a deception.
As I lay me down to sleep....
One’s early life has great context in this...
So she didn’t have to take a number?
