Thank you so very much for posting this. It is nice to read something once in a while that uplifts the spirit. It also reminds that in the end, the daily troubles of this life matter little and that someday we walk through another door into His arms for wonders untold.

I died of cardiac arrest in Aug. 2009. Was down and dead for a couple minutes. Fortunately my son had gotten me to the hospital (thru rush hour traffic- He learned to drive hard and fast in Iraq) in time where a doctor was waiting for me.

While I didn’t see any angels, lights, or anything during dead time and the two comas I was in afterwards, a lot of people were praying for me (The doctors had said that if I revived, it would be a miracle. They called it right).

I believe that God had a purpose for me to stick around - help raise my granddaughter (she’s the real angel in all this); take care of my wife and adult children if they need it; and to take Obama and his commies down!.

Still ticking after 2-1/2 years and still doing all of the above, esp. the last.

Miracles: Able to call my wife/son for help in getting me from DC to ALexandria Va hospital, and in time
- Doctor and crash cart right there when I went into clinical death
- Defibrilator worked on the second series of shocks
- Arctic Sun coma
- Normal medical coma
- Pneumonia
- Brain Seizures

6 days later, woke up watching Fox Cable News. Surprised the heck out of everyone in the room. A lot of believers where created that day.

God works in strange ways, but who am I to complain.

We’ve got work to do.

Then he yelled into the darkness, “Jesus, please save me!”

Within an instant, a brilliant light appeared that came closer and closer. He found himself bathed in a beautiful light, and for the first time he could clearly see his own body’s miserable condition, ghastly for his own eyes to behold. “I was almost all gore.”

Immediately he recognized Jesus, the King of Kings, the Rescuer, the Deliverer. “His arms reached down and touched me and everything healed up and came back together,” he recalls. “He filled me with a love I never knew existed.”

Fills me with joy!

The United Church of Christ is a very liberal group. I am posting a text from Wikipedia which shows they believe in gay rights and abortion in some of there churches.

“The UCC maintains full communion with other mainline Protestant denominations, while many congregations choose to practice open communion.[4] The denomination places high emphasis on participation in worldwide interfaith and ecumenical efforts.[5][6] The national settings of the UCC have historically favored liberal views on social issues, such as civil rights, gay rights, women’s rights and abortion rights. However, United Church of Christ congregations are independent in matters of doctrine and ministry and may not necessarily support the national body’s theological or moral stances. It is self-described as “an extremely pluralistic and diverse denomination”.[7]

An amazing story of yet another miracle that God is capable of when called upon.

“French doctors do seven surgeries a week, and after they do the seven surgeries, they take the weekend off”

I found this part amusing.

(as an American doctor.)

"They placed him on a bed without sheets or a pillow and offered no pain medication. He waited in the room for 10 hours."

I can't say this amused me, but it did make me sit up and take notice.

I was almost all gore.

You know you've hit rock bottom when you're almost Al Gore.

Then he was surprised by a small voice inside his head that said, ‘Pray to God.’...or as Father Groeschel says, in that millioneth of a millioneth of a second between life and death when Jesus calls, if the soul responds then you are saved.....
