I just sent out the testimony about my Grandmother’s near-death experience and how she told of seeing heaven, while doctors reported she was clinically dead…. I also included here poetry which she wrote about JESUS and would often recite….Well one of my really good friends, Lillian Bratteng, liked the poetry so much she set it to music, and I have to tell you I cried I was so overwhelmed by this. So I must share my Grandmother’s poetry set to music all these years later:
Jesus leads me – Poem by Mary Ann McKinniss
Here’s the original testimony:
Heaven Is a Real Place
None other than my own maternal Grandmother, Mary Ann McKinniss, experienced one of the first supernatural experience reports that came my way. My Grandmother, who has since gone on to be with the Lord, was a woman of few words and yet so in love with God. Writing and reciting poetry to the Lord in her later years was how my Grandmother spent her time.
She had a near-death experience in which she had heart failure and she was even pronounced clinically dead by the doctors while in the hospital. She came back to life and shared that what she saw was wonderful and she could not use anything from earth to describe what she had seen. She said that she never feared death again after that. This experience left me with a profound curiosity about God and Heaven at an early age, for which I would later try to find answers. When I was about 14-years-old, my Grandmother made it to her incomparable home.
