As a hardcore non-believer in an afterlife, with his wife’s passing, Jayson’s mind is quickly changed to show him it exists.
Jayson writes:
“I was possibly the most skeptical person you could find when it came to this kind of stuff. Seriously, didn’t buy any of it. If your dead, your dead. That was it for me.”
“I won’t go into the details but, my wife, mother of my 4 children passed away 3 years ago. 7 days after her death a single Lily grew in our backyard under the tree. This was her favorite flower.”
“We had never planted lilies or really even ventured back to that part of the yard. There is a bit of a steep slope under the tree so, it was hard to get to. But, there it grew. One lone lily. And from that day on, I knew. I knew there was more to this whole thing. It gave such a sense of relief that she was okay and onto greener pastures. (No pun intended).”
“That’s my story. I now know that death is not the end. Quite possibly the beginning. I’m not arrogant enough to claim I know anything more than what I’ve seen and felt. But I can assure you….This isn’t it.”
Commentary- Occasionally, a non-believer will write to genuinely ask me how I know that all this afterlife stuff is real. It’s a really easy question to answer.
In so many words, Jayson said it perfectly with the sharing of his own after-death experience. Basically, you don’t know anything about this spiritual stuff until the moment that you do. When you have a personal “beyond this world” experience that is undeniable, there is no longer any question to entertain. Even if you can’t understand it, like Jayson, when it happens, you know first-hand that this afterlife stuff is real… and you can never go back.
So hang in there non-believers who want to believe. Just one moment can change everything in an instant.
So Jayson, On the anniversary of my Husband’s 5th year to heaven on April 6th, I was grieving and thinking, wow, you are so lucky that you died before me, so you do not have to grieve everyday like I do. Then I thought to myself, what do I know…maybe Rich is grieving for me on the other side too!
Hugs to you, Kathy. xo
That’s beautiful Jayson, what a wonderful way for her to show up and change your mind.
Thanks Jade xoxo
Thats great to find another level of understanding, nice Jayson. Thanks or sharing Jade.
Jayson, sorry for your loss. I lost my wife too quickly as well and boy did she ever let herself be known that she’s not gone. Just transformed. I say this about people who have moved on. Wasn’t much of a believer either but after all this, I believe.
