- My story with God
- Jesus has been tugging at me since I had a near death experience over forty years ago! I was raised as a Catholic, went all my school years and
graduated from Catholic Schools and attended Church regularly. I always believed in God and I knew if I lived my life being a good Christian I would go to heaven. I didn't know anything about having a personal relationship
with Jesus Christ at that time. Thirty years or so later, I asked Him into my heart as I read a sign off the road, while riding as a passenger in our motorhome, I was very sincere and all of a sudden a great feeling of peace and joy, completely covered me. I felt very close to God, but, I never once thought about the Bible or that there was anything else that I needed to do.(?????) Then Jesus, I didn't know at that time, it was the Holy Spirit came to me and "told me to tell everyone about how I felt and what I remembered about my near death experience", (which was the most awesome thing that had ever happened in my life up to then), "I said I really don't know how to do that". He said "Start a web site called AllaboutGOD.com or to see if there was a web site already started"! Well That was in 1998 and even then I was not very computer savvey and I did
not obey!!! I didn't know why until February 26, 2007. Something told me to dig up my notes that I had kept on my computer all these years and when I read about Jesus telling me to do this and that is where my notes
ended. I have no idea why! So I had my Sister look to see if there was a web site called Allabout GOD.com When she e-mailed me back, she sent
a(I will never forget it) Blue line AllaboutGOD.com and said click on this! When I did, He didn't have to tug on me ever ever again! I couldn't move for the longest time, I just stared at the computer, I felt His presence completely take over my body. My life with Him is sooo awesome! I spend most of the day with Him in my thoughts and prayers. There is not enough time in a day! I do know now why I didn't obey Him. It was not in His timing! He knew it would mean more to me on February 26, 2007 and that He would never have to tug on me again! He is my Lord my Love
and my Life forever! Now in a dream the other night, He told me to go to AllaboutGOD.net. I am obeying Him now and forever! I plan to write again about my near death experience, because it is so important to Him and the world!
I believe HE wants me to tell you all about this experience now. 4-29-08
It all started when I was in surgery after the birth of my Son. There were
complications and I had to have a transfusion. While in surgery, I felt myself moving very fast as though on a flatcar of a train. I was speeding past everything, but, at the same time I knew all about these things. I had absolutely no questions about anything. I was in the most beautiful place with the most vibrant and unexplainable colors, I had total Peace and understanding. I felt warm and loved and on a journey toward a bright light way off in the distance, I could hardly wait to get there, when all of a sudden, someone was telling me to look up or wake up, I don't know which one, but I knew if I did either one, I could not get to the light and I would leave the most desirable place I had ever been so I held my
eyes shut just as tight as I could but it was the Doctors and Nurses bringing me back by slapping me it seems. Later my Doctor told me I was what they considered a bad mother in the old days when a Mother
hemoraged to death and left their baby alone. Anyway, I prayed everyday for years, that God would never let me forget this experience and that if Everyone could have an experience like this, we would all
have HIS peace. I was never able to explain what I saw and felt for several years, everytime I would try, I just didn't have the words to justify the Glorious feeling of Love. I know why HE sent me to this
site now, HE wants Everyone to experience His Love and Peace.
Please do just that!! This is HIS PLAN FOR YOU.
- Other stuff about me:
- I love children and animals and anyone else who can make
me laugh.
While writing my story here, I made an error, I would like to correct.
When Jesus told me to start a web site called All About God, or to see
if there was already a web site like this, there was no .com. I didn't even know what .com was. I learned .com when my
sister sent back the link. AllAboutGOD.com. This is the only way I know
how to correct my story.

- Praise the lord
I am Rev. O.D.Ananda Rao Samuel; full time Christian gospel worker.
About my self :- My parents dedicated me to JESUS CHRIST when I was born. And i am also dedicated my life to CHRIST service.
India is “Hindu” religious country. In my country most of the people worship IDOLS. These people not accepting JESUS CHRIST.
Indian papulation 115 cross, 80% Hindus ; 13% Muslims ; 4% Sikhs and last 3% Christians.
There is so much God’s work in my country. And Christian gospel workers, Evangelists and pastors are getting so many troubles by Hindu religion people.
If any way to serve JESUS CHRIST message until my last breath.
I am only one son to my parents. And I have one sister who slept in Jesus Christ long ago while she was at 2 years old. And we hope she reached safely in to the hands of JESUS CHRIST.
My sister is named "SHRINE BASILICA”. Since she was invited by Jesus in to his hands my parents started a ministry by her name. And the ministry is called "BREADS”:-"Basilica Rural Evangelical and Development Society" since 1982.
In this ministry with out any support we preach gospel and do out reach ministry.
August 23rd 2008 one HINDU religion Elder killed by militants. With out any reason IDOLS worship people attacked and killed so many people nearly 174 Christian believers died and destroyed 12 churches. These incidents are telecasted BBC&CNN and another news channels. With these details I would like to invite you to India to witness my ministry and to take part in helping the needy.
I hope you would encourage my ministry in all aspects please pray for me and my ministry
In His service

indiegirl said… - Dear Orangetree, thanks so much for your concern about me. It's very nice that we are praying for each other.
I could understand that sometimes Catholic could be strict at obeying rules, but of course the implementation should be base on the love for God and love for humanity, as God has told us. And we as human sometimes can swing to both side of the pendulum, too strict or too loose, and as we know that we won't be perfect no matter what, God has given us the redeemer in Himself, but still He always encourages us to be perfect like Father. So, for me rules in Catholic church are rules made by our trying to understand the perfection God wants us to be.I myself sometimes would also be in a situation that could make me bend the rules, its all humanity in ourselves, but I find here in my own parish, my situation that all my friends and I have been through very bad sins, some of them divorced, some even did the abortion, but still they could get access to sacraments, I think sometimes it's the person in charge who put the string too tight....well it's just my opinion.
As for me, I am already moving to my hometown, I was thinking of living in my own place, but my mother and father has been thru' lots of difficulties, as when I got very sick, my father got a traffic accident that put him almost a moth in hospital. But I really admire my mother of having faith so deep, I can't really fathom myself since I sometimes could ask God why and why me?
So..I am now staying with my parents and try to help them as much as I could. What about your family? Do your children live near you or far ? Hopefully they really are devoted children too, not saying that I'm devoted enough ha...ha...
God bless you sister, I will always pray for you. Hope that your love to God really brings you closer always to Him.
In Christ

- Hi Orangetree
It's very nice to hear from you again. I also can't visit this site very often. I have some problems with my health returning sometimes and also busy with jobs. I am glad that you've found a great church. How is it great and different? I myself am still a conservative Catholic, though sometimes I consider myself a little bit into charismatic as well, but as Christian we believe with our personal relationship with Him no matter what our denomination is, right?
As for the business, so many jobs related to exporting are really damaged here in Indonesia. But relatively the construction jobs are actually not so much affected here, we're still constructing many buildings. I don't know for sure how long it will eventually hit my business core. But well, I always believe that we need time to balance things out, it's just a matter of time.
I really hope that you're keeping your shape. There are times that reminds us all that what we can do is to cling on to God. God bless you too, you're in my prayer.
In Christ,
Indiegirl

- Dear Orangetree....
How are you, it's been a while since we last wrote each other. Hope you're still hanging there and doing great. You must be busy with all the election in your country and all. Glad to hear that the election was doing great, though I myself would have chosen Mc'Cain if I were American....ha...ha..But, may the chosen one be the next agent of improvement, not just change.
Indonesia is also hit by the economic crisis, just to let you know. My project had been slowing down due to some payment difficulties. Well...but we as company still manage to survive...only don't know until when....but my hope is still high.
Really want to hear again from you. God bless you and your family.
Cheers,
Indiegirl

- Orangetree....
Ha...ha...I already knew it actually. I browsed to your page and found that reply intended for me was there. I said to myself, you must have been very busy that you forget things. Well it's ok. I am the one to say sorry because I had known that but didn't write to you directly. I was also on long vacation due to Moslem celebration that took almost 2 weeks, I was away with my parents in my hometown.
How are things with you. I hope you're just fine, and so your husband. God will take care of all of us, though some days people are stressed out due to some things that out of their control, 'cos yeah lately it happens to me. But let's just stick with the faith, 'cos it's the source of our strengths.
The Bible told us so, and so we will live by it.
With love in Jesus,
Indiegirl

Prove the strength of our anchor…..
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine
and puts them into practice is like a wise man
who built his house on the rock.- Matt.7:24
Living for the Lord,serving Him each day,
Best prepares the soul for the stormy way;
Then as trials come,tempting to despair,
We can rest secure,safe within His care.
God bless u my dear friend....

- So nice to hear from you. I think we all
need to know that we have friends who
truly care and love one another. I know
I can always count on Jesus and that always gives me a warm and loved feeling. I am glad that you will be closer
to your Mother now. I am sure she will be happy that you are there too! I hope your health is better now. As far a friends are concerned, they all have their
own issues and sometimes are not paying attention to how their are feeling.
Thank you for your prayers, and I think that would be so nice to have a friend like you living in my neighborhood. You just keep talking to Jesus about all that you are doing and it won't be long, you will feel his presence. Love Hope and Faith is
a very good way to think!!
I thank God for you also!! Enjoy your Mom. God Bless you both.
