On The Verge Of Death, An 11-Year-Old Sees Jesus And The Golden Gates Of Heaven

Paisley was just eleven years old when she met Jesus in heaven. Not only that, but she also saw the golden gates of heaven.

The Golden Gates of Heaven

When she was five years old, Paisley became very sick. She would often go to the bathroom because of extreme nausea.

Unknown to her, it was where she would see the hands of God reaching out to her.

“It all started when I was five years old. I was super sick and had a running fever. So I went to the bathroom and started vomiting. And I saw a hand coming through in the corner of my wall. And there were like clouds all around it. Then it disappeared,” she recalled.

That day, she went to the ER. And there, they discovered what had caused her to become ill.

Experiencing Heaven

“We went to the ER, and apparently I had West Nile leading to meningitis. When I went to the bathroom, the hand was back. He pulled me back– He pulled me into heaven. Next thing you know, I’m inside of heaven,” Paisley recalled.

There, she saw her grandfather, whom she called Papa. He died almost nine years ago.

“He was wearing khaki-colored overalls with his messy paintbrushes. And his two paint buckets around him. He’s a painter. He painted a lot of houses back then,” she said.

Seeing Jesus and the Golden Gates of Heaven

“I saw Jesus! I saw the big old golden gate. They were big, and they were beautiful. They were golden, they were shiny, and they were super, super big, with guardian angels around them. Holding it like a bucket-shaped spear. I did see a lot of angels.

“Also, feathers. Like waves of feathers. Really, really pretty. And then I saw Jesus staring into some hole. Like a hole inside the clouds. He was like staring into some kid. I don’t know who that was.”

But Paisley later realized that she was that kid. Her relative who was filming her said, “He was looking down at you because you’re in the middle of dying. And Jesus was looking down at you.”

“He was looking down on a hole, and He slowly turned His head towards me. Jesus made a hand gesture, and everything closed, and it went black. And I came back to life. And I looked up and saw my unicorn balloon,” Paisley added.

Another Kid Saw Her in Heaven

She was in a coma for a few days stayed in the hospital for about six weeks. She couldn’t see, talk, write, or walk.

“I was like being born again. So I had to learn to do everything again,” Paisley said.

“So you believe Jesus gave you a second chance at life?” her relative asked, to which she answered, “He did.”

“And heaven is real?”

“Heaven is real. I’ve experienced it. I’m an 11-year-old kid, but I’ve seen heaven.”

But she wasn’t the only one who saw it.

“There was a friend of mine. I didn’t know her then, but she’s now my best friend ever. She had a seizure on the same day as me. She also saw God, and she also saw me talking to my Papa in heaven. And she also saw Jesus looking into that hole. She saw me in heaven.”

Paisley only knew about it a few weeks later, and during the first day at school, they met.

Heaven is Real

May this be a reminder and a source of hope to anyone who’s struggling right now that even though sorrow and loss happen here on earth, eternal life filled with joy is waiting for those who receive Jesus as their LORD and Savior.

A Dad Chooses To Forgive The Man Who Murdered His 11-Year-Old Daughter

After years of bitterness and pain, a dad has chosen to forgive the man who sexually assaulted and murdered his 11-year-old daughter, whom he dearly loved.

Tragedy Rocks Lemire Family

In a small town in Taslina, Alaska, Dave Lemire, and his children shared beautiful memories as a family. The family loved doing outdoor activities together, especially Dave and his 11-year-old daughter, Mandy. She was his fishing and hunting buddy. But on August 22, 1991, an unexpected tragedy rocked the Lemire family.

One day, Mandy left home to meet a friend. But her friend, Aaron, wondered where she was because she never arrived at their meeting point. So, he went to Mandy’s house, and they began to search for her.

Dave immediately went out to look all over the woods. When he felt something was seriously wrong with Mandy’s disappearance, he contacted a search and rescue. The dad couldn’t do anything amidst the investigation but wait and pray.

“I’m praying, ‘God, protect her. Help us find her in the morning,’” he cried out to God.

Struggling To Forgive

Ten days later, one of the search and rescue teams finally found Mandy. But with very heartbreaking news—she wasn’t alive. Dave couldn’t take what he had just heard, and his heart was crushed.

Apparently, the responders found the 11-year-old’s body in the woods “about a mile from her house.” Later they discovered in the investigation that the suspect sexually assaulted the young girl before murdering her.

WOMAN’S ANKLE HEALED AFTER CHOOSING FORGIVENESS

Dave struggled with dark thoughts against the man who murdered his daughter. Anger, bitterness, and pain then took a toll on the brokenhearted dad’s life. For many years, he couldn’t afford to release forgiveness. Instead, he wanted to place justice in his hands to get his revenge. On top of that, he began doubting God.

Until one day, God met Dave, tearing down all his bitter and ugly walls.

Watch what happened.

11-Year-Old Born With Heart Outside Her Chest Is Inspiring The World With Her Story

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A young girl born with a heart outside her chest inspires the world with her bright and positive outlook despite her condition.

Girl Born With A Heart Outside Chest

For 11-year-old Virsaviya Borun-Goncharova, life has been difficult as she was born with a very rare condition. When doctors found out during her mom’s pregnancy that the baby had a Pentalogy of Cantrell, they suggested abortion. Because it is a condition where her heart is outside her chest. Hence, her heart is too exposed that her rib cage and abdominal muscles cannot protect it. According to medical science, Virsaviya’s condition “affects only 1 in a million live births.”

Trusting God And Keeping Her Baby Girl

Doctors also predicted that her unborn baby girl wouldn’t survive. It broke her deeply. But despite the heartbreaking news, the mom, Dari, decided to keep her and fight for her baby’s life. Perhaps she trusted God amid the harrowing ordeal. The mom even has a tattoo on her left shoulder, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” from Philippians 4:13. And indeed, although born with some complications, her daughter survived.

A Miracle

Today, 11 years have passed, and Virsaviya is a happy young girl living her best life in Florida. She defied the odds and proved the doctors’ predictions wrong as she is enjoying her pre-teen life. Every day, she can also do most things anyone her age would do without pain. And her mom is so proud of her.

“She truly is a miracle and I love the way she is,” Dari said. “She is absolutely unique, she is one in a million.”

Virsaviya still has to be very careful despite seemingly living a normal life. She needs to always watch out not to hurt her chest since nothing protects her exposed heart. But according to the report, the young girl always “wears a chest covering.” For in such a way, her vital organ won’t get damaged.

Also, the 11-year-old has conoventricular VSD. It is “a condition where she has a hole in her heart where portions of the ventricular septum should meet,” according to the outlet. Which makes all the more reason that she has to be more careful. Because sometimes, her oxygen level really gets low that she has to be admitted to the hospital.

But despite it all, Virsaviya remained positive and didn’t allow her condition to stop her from living the best life.

“Sometimes it can be difficult when my oxygen levels are low,” said the 11-year-old. “And I feel lightheaded and dizzy. But I love staying active and singing and dancing with my friends.”

Virsaviya is inspiring the whole world today with her story. And she remarked, “My heart is different, but it makes me completely unique and I love that.”

In her Instagram, the 11-year-old wrote in her bio the symbol of the Cross.

Dogs Attack 11-Year-Old Boy, Then God Sends Off-Duty Officer To Rescue

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

An 11-year-old boy was attacked by dogs and called out to Jesus for help, and then God sends an off-duty officer to rescue him.

Dogs Attack Young Boy

Bramwell Rodriguez-Rojas was playing in the backyard of his apartment complex when two dogs suddenly attacked him. Thus, his harmless play time became a life-threatening situation.

“I heard a bark and then I turned around and started screaming,” the 11-year-old recalled. “I put my arm on my face and then everything just started to happen.”

He couldn’t do anything but cry out to God to save him from that horrific situation.

“I was crying and telling Jesus to save me,” he said. An off-duty police officer then showed up, because he heard the boy’s screams. The officer raced into the yard and fired his gun to scare off the dogs.

“Then he put his arm on my chest and he was seeing that I kept breathing,” the young boy explained. “He was telling me to stay with him and I tried my hardest to not close my eyes.”

God’s Miracle

Bramwell suffered bites to his neck, arm, and legs. If God didn’t send the police officer at that moment, it might have been worse for the poor boy. He underwent several surgeries, with one six hours long. Stitches and bandages covered his small body. But despite the horrific experience, he credits the miracle to God, “I know I was protected by angels and everything.”

Bramwell’s family calls the officer their “guardian angel.” Moreover, his mother, Georgia, says, “I know that God performs miracles. He was instrumental in the hands of God, in giving my son the help he so desperately called for in that moment.”

Today, Bramwell is home with his family. They are grateful to God and the community who supported the boy’s GoFundMe Page that helped them overcome the ordeal.

God is good!

11-Year-Old Hero

Her grandson PJ was playing outside their house when the incident happened. Angela says he often plays outside. To her surprise, he took action without hesitation and must have noticed his grandma’s condition from afar.

Child Drives For Medical Emergency

Without delay, PJ took Angela’s Mercedes Benz car and drove it. When asked why he chose that car, he said it was because it’s the closest keys he could find. He steered the car while the grandma tried to steady herself in the road.

“I saw my Mercedes Benz coming towards me,” she told 11Alive. And when she looked inside the car who was driving, it was her grandson!

Despite the medical emergency, “PJ was cool and collected behind the wheels” described Angela. “He drove like a pro.” Moreover, he grabbed the glucose tests and peanut butter crackers to help her on the ride to the hospital.

The grandson amazed his grandma in how he handled the car so well. So, she took a video of his skills after she recovered.

When Angela asked him how he did that, he said, her husband asked him to move cars in the yard before. “But never in the street and never by himself.”

“He is an extra special little boy and he doesn’t ask for anything in return,” stated the very proud grandmother.

This is absolutely a miracle. Praise God!

11-Year-Old Girl Receives Miracle Healing as Inoperable Tumor Disappears

by Jared Laskey
written by Jared Laskey

11-year-old Roxli Doss was diagnosed in June with an inoperable brain tumor. It was specifically diagnosed as ‘diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma,’ also known as DIPG.

DIPG is, “very rare, but when we see it, it is a devastating disease,” said Dr. Virginia Harrod of Dell Children’s Medical Center of Central Texas. She continued saying, “You have decreased ability to swallow, sometimes vision loss, decreased ability to talk. And eventually difficulty with breathing.”

Miracle Healing Received

Roxli underwent radiation treatments for a number of weeks after her diagnosis. And her parents were told that there is no cure. But being people of faith, Roxli’s parents prayed for a miracle healing. And the miracle healing was received! Roxli’s dad, Scott, said, “Praise God we did!”

Dr. Harrod said, “When I first saw Roxli’s MRI scan, it was actually unbelievable. The tumor is undetectable on the MRI scan, which is really unusual.” Doctors have no explanation as to why the tumor disappeared.

But Roxli’s parents know that God answers prayer and are thanking Him for His goodness. Roxli’s mom, Gena, said, “Everyday we still say it. It’s kind of our family thing that God healed Roxli.”

There is no trace of a tumor but doctors are still monitoring her. But Scott Doss said, “She is just as active as she ever was.” Roxli is now healthy and enjoying her hobbies, such as horseback riding.
