I began to see my life and each breath I am given as a living prayer to God and a way to pray for others for our world.

Live a life of gratitude, giving thanks in all circumstances.

They care for, protect, and guide God's people, frequently intervening or bring messages to people from God.

Faith allows us to confidently walk with God into a future filled with joy; one that can become an extraordinary and amazing adventure.

When you are doing God's will everything seems to happen without much effort or many obstacles.

I feel as though I am trying to describe a three-dimensional experience while living in a two-dimension world. The appropriate words, descriptions, and concepts don't even exist in our current language. I have subsequently read the accounts of other people's near-death experiences and their portrayals of heaven and I am able to see the same limitations in their descriptions and vocabulary that I see in my own.

What I find more remarkable, however, is how readily many people in our society believe outlandish and unsubstantiated urban myths and conspiracies (Pop Rocks and Coke, JFK assassination, AIDS is man-made, etc.), yet disregard thousands of personal and consistent testimonies of miracles and near-death experiences from people throughout all cultures and religions.
