Is Heaven Real? A Near-Death Experience of God’s Love and Eternity
Is Heaven Real?
A Near-Death Experience of God’s Love and Eternity
If you’ve ever wondered what happens after death, or whether heaven is real, you’re not alone.
This testimony shares a near-death experience that offers a glimpse into eternity—and the overwhelming love of God.
In our walk of faith, we often seek assurance that God is with us — not just in life, but in death, and beyond. Today’s testimony of Sharon Milliman offers a powerful glimpse into the afterlife, filled with peace, truth, and the unconditional love of God.
Sharon’s Encounters with God’s Heart
From childhood, Sharon experienced supernatural moments. At just 13, she nearly drowned — but instead of fear, she felt warmth, peace, and was surrounded by a soft, glowing light. That light, she came to understand, was God’s presence.
Years later, during a dark period, Jesus Himself appeared to her with these comforting words:
“I love you. I’m with you. Don’t be afraid.”
That moment ended her suicidal thoughts and led her deeper into her faith journey. She would later witness miraculous healing and feel God’s nearness even in silence.
A Glimpse into Heaven
Her most vivid near-death experience occurred after being struck by lightning. Sharon described her spirit lifting from her body and entering a realm more real than earth — filled with color, music, and divine presence.
Her experience raises a question many people ask: is heaven real, and what happens after death?
What she saw:
- A garden of peace where she met her two brothers (who had died as infants)
- A city of light with homes, a golden-domed temple, and a divine library
- Healing pools for souls transitioning from traumatic deaths
- A life review filled with love, not shame — no judgment, only truth
- A Book of Life containing every soul’s purpose and journey
- Even her childhood dog, alive and joyful in this radiant realm
She learned heaven isn’t far — it’s simply hidden by a spiritual veil. God’s love filled every corner, every sound, even the colors.
What Matters to God: Love Over Religion
Sharon was told:
“Every religion holds a piece of truth, like stained glass. But love is the light that shines through it.”
God didn’t ask her about church attendance, theology, or possessions. He asked how much she had loved.
Her encounters revealed that:
- Heaven is built on relationship, not religion
- Every small act of love matters eternally
- Our souls are eternal, radiant, and deeply known by God
A Message from Jesus: Just Love
In one final moment, while caring for her ailing mother, Jesus told her:
“Everything that’s happened in your life has prepared you for this. Just love. That’s all you have to do — just love.”
He also gave her insight to discern spirits — those filled with darkness bring fear and pride, while those from God bring light, peace, and joy.
