HE then said, “I wasn’t expecting you so soon”. This troubled me a little bit, as it wasn’t what I had expected either.
Then HE said “But I have a place for you. Come walk and follow ME.” As I followed him from behind, down a long corridor, I saw many rooms. Row after row of huge wooden doors that were so tall I couldn’t even see the top of the doors! The huge giant doors were closed but I noticed that the door knob or handle resembled a giant snow white, sea shell. They appeared to look like giant pearls! They were so beautiful, iridescent and brightly shinning. I soon recognized them as Mother of Pearl! The feeling of richness began to overcome me, as I realized I was looking at another treasure. I began to think, oh what a mystical place Heaven is! Nature at its best! Paradise! I could never have imagined something more stunning and mystical. It was not what I had expected. It was so much more magnificent than I could have ever dreamed of or imagined. The warm immeasurable love from the Lord that I received placed a feeling of immense Joy with in my soul. Observing all of the magnificent beauty that I was permitted to reflect on became so over powering, that when I think about it now, I get weak in my knees! There just are no words that can describe what I saw and felt.
When we all get to heaven oh what a glorious day that will be! 7 Never Saw Blue Like This
We suddenly came to a stop at a room and Jesus said “Your favorite color is blue right?” As I nodded yes, HE opened the door and allowed me to step in. To my pleasant surprise my place was blue! It looked somewhat different than what I experienced during the tunnel effect. The colors weren’t floating or suspended around me but I could still make out all of the different shades of blue surrounding my place. My place did not give me a feeling of enclosure like a room where there are walls but it was more like a huge spacious space. It reminded me of looking at a blue sky. Shades of blue that I had never seen before! Yet it also appeared endless. I was happy with all of the many shades of blue colors that I was seeing. I never saw blue quite like this before! I was thinking that I could be comfortable here. I praised Jesus for the wonderful treasure that HE allowed me to experience. I can still see the glowing, vibrant look of Jesus and the warmth of the overpowering love that I felt and remember vividly my small peek into Heaven. Jesus stepped inside with me and as I looked around I noticed that there was nothing in side of the space, just the beautiful colors. My room was empty! It was not what I had expected. I was thinking “is this all there is? Is there more? I certainly don’t want to miss it? Things were not what I thought they should be!” I suddenly became blue with disappointment, when I realized that that was all there was.
Jesus said, “I sense that you are not happy with your room?”
“It is empty.” I said. “Where are my treasures?”
HE paused and placed his finger on his cheek for a brief moment as if thinking of the right words to say to me before speaking. Then HE asked me “What are your treasures?”
I thought for a moment and replied

About the Book
“But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven.
Where moths and vermin do not destroy,
and where thieves do not break in and steal.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be.”
(Matt. 6:20-21 KJV)
Do you fear death even though you are a believer?
Fear is conquered by the knowledge that you understand the question. Witness how I answered the soul-searching question that Jesus asked me when I was found blue without a heartbeat, at the age of nineteen. This faith-affirming true account of how I walked through heaven is here for your instruction and education. My tale of an angler and his catch on the bank of the river of life may make you realize that even the fish stories are true in the afterlife. The sights and sounds of the great plaza just beyond the Pearly Gates can inspire deep reflection on your expectations based on the accounts you have read before. The first encounter with Jesus reveals aspects of the Lord to modify your vision of the Shepherd as he tends his flock in His own delightful way. The indescribable sights were boundless as I entered through the massive doors to the mansion that He had prepared for me. Hear how I reacted when I saw my name written in the Book of Life.
Inspired by the grace of God, these connections and recollections were revealed during my struggles as God guided me down life’s untraveled roads. Follow the revelations of my multiple births, rebirths, the beauty of death, and how I found true treasures.
I pray that you don’t miss this miraculous story and be the one who is forgotten and left behind! No one likes to carry their own boots and saddle during life’s difficult challenges.
About the Author
Friends describe her as a Cinderella with a gypsy flair. She describes herself as a Cinderella with a Scarecrow brain! She explains she is the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, searching for her brain. At age 19, a bizarre car accident exposed her to carbon monoxide poisoning. The CO2 poisoning had the effect of a tornado, blowing her brain clean and leaving debris for her to piece together. Little was left of her recollections and operation of the simplest of things were difficult. The doctors, in 1972, informed her that she made medical history. They had never treated anyone with this level of carbon monoxide in their blood that had survived. There was really no tried and true treatment. The doctors couldn’t tell her parents if she would ever recover abilities or her memory. It would take time. How much no one knew.
Recently there was a question in a bible study class. She was asked for remembrances of being baptized. Since she could not recall being baptized, she told this astonishing, incredible account of her miraculous journey through Heaven and of conversations with Jesus. The bible study class were ecstatic upon hearing this recollection. The teacher encouraged her to write it down so others could share this experience. This enormous undertaking would prove difficult as her memories of English classes past were gone and even her basic handwriting skills had been damaged in the accident. With God’s help and her computer, she decided to make the attempt. The outcome was this true account of her journeys through Heaven and life. The struggles that she encountered became a revelation in faith and hope. Cindy hopes you will renew your spirit and become rebirthed, as she did. Appreciate the fresh start in life that was given freely through grace, perseverance and of course Love. This traveled road may resemble a fairytale, however she will assure you that fairy tales don’t always end like we think they should. She desires for you to see life differently and inspire you to embrace the treasures of life.
Cindy has two grown sons, three sisters, and one brother. She is an aunt, a great aunt, a wife, a friend, and a believer in JESUS. Being raised on a farm, in a small town in Texas, in the 50’s, 60’s and early 70’s, gave her a unique perspective towards nature and a way of life that is slowly disappearing. Cindy wishes that you join her in her quest to Be a Treasure, Earn a Treasure, Make a Treasure, Give a Treasure, Witness a Treasure and Embrace a Treasure. It is a way of life that will add many blessings to your family’s life as well as your own. You don’t want to be the one that is forgotten and left behind.

She currently lives on Cedar Creek Lake, near Dallas TX, where she transforms, mirrors, tables, crosses and chandeliers into beautiful forms of art through the use of driftwood. Her online shop has been recognized in several magazines, as well as on the internet. Whether it be with looking at life as the beholder of her home based business “Reclaimed Objects,” or perhaps through the eyes of Jesus, her love of nature is readily apparent. Cindy desires that you will discover your own heart’s desire. To look at life through the eyes of Jesus and nature. To recall the distant past of times and things gone by. Whether it be your own life or an unfulfilled dream. Upon reflection, Cindy hopes you will renew your spirit and become rebirthed, as she did. Appreciate the fresh start in life that was given freely through grace. Understand this to be a new beginning. Realize that we are not on this earth alone. There is something greater to our purpose than just following your own desires.
