Time Slows Down and Other Miracles
“In the summer of 1991, I was walking in a Swiss train station with my husband, who carried our one-year-old baby on his shoulders. She was holding onto his neck and hair for support, while he carried two suitcases in his arms. I walked along behind my husband a few paces back, also carrying a suitcase, and noticing that our daughter had released her grip on my husband’s hair and was now happily waving her arms free so they rose and fell with each step he took as she bounced along. Very suddenly and without warning, our daughter bounced up and free of her dad’s shoulders and began falling, back, head-first towards the hard marble floor of the train station. I realized with a sudden shock that there was no way he could stop her from falling, and I was about nine feet behind him… seemingly much too far to catch her as she fell. I felt a rush of emotions flooding me with energy and I realized that I desired with all my heart and soul to somehow catch her.
In the very next moment, I felt myself continuing to walk forward at my normal speed, while everything and everyone around me moved more and more slowly. It seemed that everyone walking nearby began moving in slow motion, and even the normal sounds of footsteps clicking on marble slowed and softened to almost total silence as time seemed to stretch forever leaving everything except me in a state approaching suspended animation.
I was overjoyed to be able to easily catch up to my husband just as our daughter fell freely into my arms! As I caught her, time seemed to resume its normal flow once again, and everyone moving around me began moving at normal speed.”

Carlene H. Appleby: First time I’ve been over here on this page, saw a couple of friends names on the side thingy and come and read ”this.” My former pastor and his wife went thru an 18 wheeler this way. Avoiding being killed, no doubt. They experienced similar knowings and feelings. We now understand that God ”literally stops time” for miracles like this; there is no other explanation as far as I am concerned. Praise HIM for what has happened in the lives in this thread.

Wanda Wman: Something like this happened to me while carrying my infant son during the winter…I walked out of a store and didn’t realize that I had stepped right onto a patch of ice…I went flying forward and upwards as I was falling, my son went flying out of my arms, all I could see was his head falling to the concrete walkway….The same thing happened, it was like everything stopped, everything around me and time…The next thing I know I am stretched out on the ground like a football player just catching a long pass from the quarterback….My arms were out stretched in front of me with my baby safely caught in them…I don’t even know what happened in between me falling and me seeing him flying out of my arms…then what seemed like everything froze and the next thing I know all is safe…except for some minor scrapes and scratches on my end…..my son was perfectly fine!!

Sanjay Mansukhani: I have had a similar experience. I once suddenly stepped down from the footpath while turning right. My right leg stepped on a man hole cover which wobbled and I was suddenly thrown off balance in the forward direction and was about to fall over on a speeding car. A force suddenly slowed me down and I could see myself going ahead frame by frame in very slow motion till I was just an inch or so from the speeding car and then there was a rebound and again I came back in slow motion frame by frame. My feet found their balance and I could see the car had passed away and my world was back to normal and safe. Even now I can clearly see that slow motion video in front of my eyes. My deepest thanks to God and complete gratitude to him.

Victoria Marlow: We have tile floors in are house. Everything that drops on that floor breaks. I started practicing saying don’t break, don’t break, don’t break if I can think that before the item hits the floor 90% of the time the item well not break. That goes for glass, dishes, myself and even hard plastic. I don’t know how it works I just knows it does.

Charlie Ertel: Everyday I look back to the day I broke my femur when I was hurdling towards a tree while sledding… time slowed down and I was able to “swim” in the air to avoid my head smashing into the tree. I’m thankful everyday because of it.

Kum Hana: I have similar experience too. I fall off building when I was young girl. I thought it was like flying in slow motion as though I could control my fall. I hit bottom fast but, while I was falling it was in slow motion like flying. I never thought much of it, thinking that it was normal to feel that way. Until now. I think it was pretty high. It was a building they were building for church. Maybe 2 story high. I landed on my feet. I didn’t shift or move. I just felt like I was flying in slow motion time just seems like moved slow when I was falling down I felt like I could control myself. when I hit ground it was fast like bam! I was surprised I hit ground. My ankle did hurt a lot but my mom took me to acupuncture doctor and I was walking when I came out.

Teresa Ofthefamily Hunter: When I was a kid, I was a passenger in the back seat of a car, I didn’t have a seat belt on, I heard a voice say put your head on the seat in front (like a brace position) a few seconds later we hit a drunk driver that had run a red light. When we hit, my body was pushed forwards into the back of the front seat and then down to the floor of the car. If I hadn’t just moved, I would have been thrown through the windscreen and killed. I have heard that voice several times in my life now, and I always listen to it.

Henry Laureano: I was driving home to a friend’s house after buying some raw honey from a local bee keeper this past summer. On the way I noticed on the other side of the road the huge facade of a new garden center/green house. As we approached I took my eyes off the facade and back onto the road, I saw the car in front of us had stopped to make a left turn without a directional signal. I immediately hit the brakes and in what appeared to be slow motion waited and hoped for the car to stop before having a collision; and it did a few feet from her rear bumper. Then I looked in my side view mirror and watched as 2 cars and a small pickup with a forth car at the rear screeched towards me in what appeared too short a distance to keep from becoming a five car pileup. It all happened in slow motion and each car stopped just a few feet from the one in front of it. I could see panic and dread in face of the driver of the pickup as she tried to keep from hitting the car ahead. Her back wheels swerved a bit to her right and she came to a stop, again with only a few feet to spare. I felt like a bubble of protection engulfed us all. It’s as though time slowed enough to give time for each car to come to a rest. Thinking back on what happened it is as though time slows down and the connection with the One becomes so focused that the reality of events in time could be rearranged. When it was all over the driver of the stopped car looked in her back view mirror and threw up her arms and shrugged her shoulders. Anyone who has had these experiences knows if they are honest with themselves, that at that moment they were totally helpless to affect change with who they know themselves to be.

Larry Dale Adams: When I was 7 or 8 I fell out of a tree, in slow motion I saw a large root protruding out of the ground as I was heading for it. I heard a female voice in my head tell me to put my arm over my chest, I landed and my parents took me to the hospital, our family dr told me I was lucky to just have a broken arm, if I had not crossed my arm over my chest he said it would have crushed my chest, hart and punctured my lungs.
