EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I was immediately taken out of my body to a scene where there were hundreds of snow white beings as far out as I could see standing close together as if at a concert all looking up at me . There was a guide or someone beside me, could have been Jesus. I couldn't see him but I knew he was there. The feeling was of complete peace and love  coming to me from the Beings of white. They seemed to have on white gowns and in their chests where their hearts would have been. I could see a dark spot and it was given to me that it was a connection to God. As I was enjoying this place, knowledge was given  to me that those people were the souls of priests or ministers who had died. Then suddenly I was transported to outer space and was shown the earth. I was far enough out that I could see the entire planet. I could feel the emotions and suffering of the people of the world.  The area of the most suffering seemed to be the African continent, but it also occurred worldwide to a slightly lesser extent. I was suffering along with the world because I could feel what they felt. I was told that the people suffer because they don't care for one another, they don't love one another. If they would care for one another, they would ease their pain and cease to suffer so badly.  I said why don't you tell them? He said telepathically to me that he has told them over and over but they won't listen. So they continue to be in anguish until people start sharing with people who are in need. He said if all people would love one another and not be selfish, the world would be happier and there would be enough for all. After this, I was instantly back in my body and I wanted to tell the whole world that they needed to love one another.
