I just found out today my younger sister (Carolyn Ann Steward) has seen spirit many times, but had never shared with me. She is very different from me in her beliefs however, now I realize we are so much the same. Here is her story about seeing spirit in an after life communication.
“It was some twenty one years ago and as time passes I think back less and less on it so rather than let this bit of my history drift away entirely I thought it best to write it down.
Back then I spent many an afternoon in my bed resting in order to keep up with the days work of caring for my family. This midday reprieve was necessary since I was dealing with ill health. I was awake in bed and just staring out of the doorway of the bedroom when I saw the image of a person. Not the person, just an image of one. Let me explain.
I had met this person less than a decade before. Amanda was her name. We were friends mainly because we were Christian people and we both knew that about each other. So we always had a small chat whenever we met. I gathered by our chance encounters that she wanted very much to please the Lord and did whatever she thought would please Him. She was married and had two children.
She worked outside the home along with her husband. Yet last I had known she did not own a house or have much to show of worldly possessions. I knew also that her dad was a star of a sixties television series and that she could have lived a very wealthy, but worldly life in Hollywood.
She had rejected all this because of her faith in Jesus and moved to Vermont where she lived rather poorly. She would get very flustered when mentioning her past as though she had tasted some disagreeable thing and say that it was much better to live as she was living.
There I lay on the bed staring out into the darkened shadow of the doorway. I was not thinking about Amanda because, as I said, I hardly ever saw her. As I laid there in front of me appeared this blue human form which became clear to me. It was Amanda. She appeared as cool blue transparent glass. She was glowing sort of like a low watt light bulb or a science fiction hologram .
More than this vision, we communicated. Not with words but with our spirits. We shared the deep love of God as best I can describe it. Love, joy, peace and every spiritual experience of the Holy Spirit was passing from me to her and from her to me.
It was a spiritual manifestation of God in us. I had known the love of God in me before but now it was more tangible. Like water filling a vessel the Holy Spirit was being poured into me and her. Perhaps my solid earthly form took over at this point for all that was left was the world where I found myself thinking vain thoughts and at that very instant I was by myself again.
I was not in the least bit frightened by this spiritual manifestation. It was pure love, joy and peace. The next day I was brought a newspaper to find out that Amanda had died two days earlier in a car accident!
I was astonished! I know this was a gift for me. A gift from the Lord who showed me like the doubting Saint Thomas that we do not die but we will be resurrected. Seeing Amanda in this way showed me this.
Whenever the spirit of doubt creeps in to my thoughts I am reminded of this vision. I know that we will not die but we will all be resurrected by God.
I know also that God is good. His goodness is in us and we enjoy His love. I know that we can only know God in this way through Jesus Christ’s work who became our sin for us on the cross.”
Namaste to all who read this.
