The power was in the voice and the voice became the light and the love came from the light. The voice, the light, and the love were all one in the same, and the Trinity was no longer a mystery to me.
I was lying in a hospital in Boston, in agonizing pain after a horrific car accident. All my hope rested in doctors’ hands, awaiting results from tests and X-rays. “If you live,” one doctor told me, “you will spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair, paralyzed from the waist down and your leg amputated.” 
A nurse came to my bedside to deliver the final blow. “You have massive internal bleeding. They don’t know where it’s coming from and we need to operate right away.” 
With my hope of any kind of normal recovery shattered, I refused all operations.
As I waited for the unfamiliar and unwelcome visitor called Death, I wondered Where will it take me? When will it happen? Will it hurt?
Slowly, I closed my eyes. Trembling, waist-deep in utter darkness, a loud voice full of power came from above and He called me His own. With His light, immeasurable in brightness, He cradled me. With His divine, unconditional love poured out over me, He healed me. With a holy whisper, He sent death on its way.
This One’s Mine is a spiritual journey beyond the invisible curtain that separates this life from the next, a story of a miraculous recovery, a quest for answers, as I searched for the path that would take me back to that place of light, love, and peace, a peace we long for our whole lives. Discovering the power of prayer; building faith and hope, accompanied by love, mercy, and grace; that led me to a decision we all must make…before our last breath.
