More than a "nice story"

It is amazing to me that people can refer to this as merely as a "nice story". The woman was declared legally dead for 28 minutes--no heartbeat, no breathing. All her vital organs were destroyed by gangrene. She describes one of the most awesome heavenly experiences which dramatically changed her life and those who have read the book. Her medical file puzzles the medical world. Excuse me, but this is no mere "nice story." This is one heck of an experience and if your life isn't impacted by Betty's experience you better check to see if you have any blood pressure.

UPLIFTING..FILLS THE READER WITH HOPE AND JOY!

I first read this book in 1980. I will never forget how I felt as I read page after page of this woman's phoenominal experience. My father died in 1961 when I was only 11 years old and for the years that followed, my heart was filled with questions about the place he went to. As I read, I wept and laughed and felt that I was living her life. The information of how to treat on who is close to transitioning from this world to the next is irreplacable. Because both my husband and I have been pastors and counsellors for many years, there have been times her testimony has been very helpful in walking with those who are in the process of grief or are dealing with life and death matters. This book is a hidden treasure. When the reader reads the story, they will be hesitant to give the book away, because, this is a book that can be read over and over again. Spritual truths and eternal principals can only be grasped as those who enquire are ready to understand and receive. Even though this was written years ago, the story is fresh and applicable to any who desire to know what is beyond for those who prepare themselves.

STIRRING!

I truly enjoyed this book, the story of one women and her walk through life's journey...until! I liked her openness about herself, her life style and her beliefs before her encounter with the hereafter and I enjoyed the wonderful transformation in her afterwards. I smiled at the faith of her Dad and the goodness of God to prepare her own husband for his soon crossing. God is so good! All in all I felt this book was very tender, showing the love God has for his children and His great, great mercy!

Walking in faith, hope and love

The greatest gift of the Lord is love. Betty shares her faith journey with us and how to overcome our selfish desires and let God be God in and through us. The Lord is the best teacher that we can follow and He so wants to love us into being. "Do not be afraid, I am with you always". Jesus.

My Glimpse of Eternity

This mind-capturing autobiography is an inspirational recollection of the authors experiences which led her to come to know the dealings of the Holy Spirit and the nearness of God. I found the book's lessons and the author's experiences to be very applicable to anyone seeking to come to know God's love and how he gently helps and deals with people to overcome their personal shortcomings and learn from their previous mistakes. This intimate exposition of the author's encounter with illness can give us hope and comfort that we may need in our daily lives, especially in times of trauma. Her visit to heaven takes the fear out of death and may help us to gain a grasp of life's priorities. I enjoyed the book very much; it left me with new insights into my own character and a refreshing look at God's attributes too.
