Janet Swopes, our first Family Engagement Mentor
My Testimony by Janet Swopes
So far I have visited with one contact,
I truly enjoyed it and mailed my written testimony with a short note to 3 others.
I am excited about this opportunity to do the Lord’s will!!
This is my testimony, and every word is true. I was in a body of water felt like a lake. I was deep in the center above me I could see the sunlight and I could see my granddaughters Swimming below me the water was dark, death I sensed that it was cold, above me it was light and warm, life, I know God was with me I felt his love for me and his power, all his power! He is so powerful! I asked Him if I could stay and be with my family And I felt Him lift me up and here I am alive, alive on Earth, on Earth with my family! This happened while I was on the ventilator, I am positive of that. I was in The Valley of the shadow of death and God was with me. I know He was with me. He is always with me but at that moment when I was dying, He made His presence known and I actually talked to Him. I asked Him a question and He answered it! I know I am a true miracle. God still performs miracles. God is still with us He is taking care of us. He is here for us. He is at the door, all we have to do is open it. He has saved me so many times and by the grace of God I am still here. He sent his son, Jesus to die for us so that our sins could be forgiven because He loves us so much, thank you Jesus! Thank you, God!
This story is true, and at the time it happened I was in the hospital, Hillcrest South in Tulsa. I had covid, I had it bad! I had triple pneumonia, and I was on the ventilator. I was on the ventilator for 48 days, the mortality rate at the time was 95%. I am 59 years old so I was in the high risk category.
I was dying. God was with me in the valley of the shadow of death. This happened in 2021 the month of June.
At the time I belonged, still do, to the
Church of Christ Grand Avenue in
Okmulgee. My church family was praying for me, my family in Florida, was praying for me, my husband, my daughters my sons-in-laws all were praying for me, praying hard! God answered each and every one of their prayers! God answered my simple request! God will answer yours if you just ask! But you have to believe! You have to accept Jesus as your savior! And you have to do His will! But the rewards are mind-boggling they are so numerous and Powerful! Our Father in Heaven can do anything!!
