导读：女童安娜贝尔·比姆先天患有肠梗阻（pseudo-obstruction），接受长期治疗也无法治愈，但没想到事情出现转机；某天她爬上大树玩耍不慎跌落，头部因受到3次强烈撞击而昏迷，身体却只有轻微擦伤，肠梗阻更不药而愈，她说会出现这些“奇迹”是因为遇到耶稣。
For thousands of years， humans have struggled with the question， “Is there life after death？” According to recent survey， 55% of people totally believe there is an afterlife， 37% are unsure， and 8% do not believe.
Most days， I fall under that middle class — but lately， as more and more miraculous stories cross my path， I feel forced to question my position...
Annabel Beam was just 11 years old when her life was forever changed. One second she was playing with her sisters， and the next she was sitting in the lap of someone very special. Her miraculous story is one you certainly don’t hear every day...
Annabel Beam， now 14 years old， is no stranger to struggle. At age 5， little Annabel was diagnosed with two incurable digestive disorders（無法治愈的消化紊乱）. These digestive disorders， which are life-threatening and incredibly painful， required many hospital visits and medications throughout her young life. The pain was so bad. Annabel one day turned to her mom and said， “Mommy， I want to go to heaven and live with Jesus（耶稣）.”
Soon after， Annabel’s sad wish was nearly allowed. While climbing a large cottonwood tree， Annabel was sent dropping down 30 feet， headfirst， when a branch suddenly gave way. She was rushed to the hospital by helicopter. But when doctors examined her， they realized Annabel hadn’t gotten a single harm. What’s more， it seemed her incurable digestive disorders had somehow disappeared. That was when Annabel showed something shocking...
During her fall， the 11-year-old girl said she went to heaven. There， she saw the golden gates， her grandma Mimi， and one very special figure： Jesus. According to Annabel， she sat upon His lap and asked to stay — but she was told her work on Earth was not done. He sent her back， telling her that when she was saved， her pain would be gone.
Now Annabel’s miraculous story is sweeping the globe. While some are moved by her vision， others are more doubtful. But that doesn’t trouble the brave little girl： “You don’t have to believe my story is real. I believe it’s real，” said Annabel. “If you don’t， oh well. You’re missing out...”
