Summary

I never imagined that facing death would be the turning point of my life. Growing up in a strict Christian home and later drifting away, I embarked on a wild journey that led me to test every belief and even spiral into substance abuse. Then, one fateful morning in November 2014 in Melbourne, Australia, everything changed. I heard a gentle, unmistakable voice calling me to step into the light. In a moment when I lost control and my body separated from my mind, I encountered Jesus—a luminous, towering presence who reached out and removed all the darkness from within me. That encounter broke through my despair, ushering in a profound peace and the transformative power of God’s love. Even though I later faced relapses and intense inner battles, that miraculous moment convinced me that death was not an end but a doorway to eternal life with Jesus. My testimony is a journey of surrender, healing, and a call to trust in the one true Light.
