Miraculously Protected From Near Certain Death & Healed

Joanne Goldenstein shared this incredible story with me in June 2023. After a catastrophic car accident that nearly killed her, she heard God tell her to “go to the beach”, an act she attributes to her miraculous healing. I edited her story for grammar only, otherwise this is her exact account word for word as I received it.

Here is her miracle story…

My name is Joanne and this is my testimony of my walk with Jesus. There is physical proof and written proof of this event. From the scars I bear and the hospital records on file.

I was living in South Florida approximately 9 years ago I had decided to ride my bicycle back and forth to work. One night on my way home I was struck by an SUV trying to beat the light in the crosswalk. The impact threw me 20 ft. into the intersection, when the emergency service got there they pronounced me dead and covered my body from head to toe with a yellow tarp (grave cloth). I sat up pushing the tarp from my face. I was then rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. The impact snapped my femur in half and half was sticking out of my thigh and the other half went though my knee. I broke the entire left side of my body from foot to shoulder. I was not wearing a helmet and my head was untouched. After surgery the doctor told me I may lose use of my leg, at best I would walk with aid (walker or cane). They sent me home a week later, and as I went to the surgeons office the doctor informed me that he can’t no longer be my doctor because the person who hit me had no insurance, so there will be no lawsuit. Meaning no rehab to help me regain my ability to walk. I went home and prayed asking God for council. God said “go to the beach.” Ok odd, but in the past it has always benefited me to be obedient and do as God says. The minute my daughter lifted me out of the truck and set me down with my walker I looked up and knew right away what God wanted me to do, SWIM. My most favorite beach, doing my most favorite thing. My grandchildren helped me hop with my walker down to the waves. I must at this point tell an incredible side story. This beach that I found when I was 17, and still going to, was the same beach the local church does hundreds of water baptisms and I had no idea they are performed early every month. Each time I went down there less and less help I needed, and with the Grace that I received I am now walking. The only aid I walk with now is with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All praise and all honor belongs to God. All I did was be obedient I just did what God told me to do. I am alive and healed.

All praise and all glory goes to God because I was wearing no helmet and my head was untouched because I know my head was being held in the hands of Jesus.
