Spiritual Experiences

I would like to hear about any one's spiritual experiences or encounters . . . such as dreams . . . visions . . . trances . . . out of body experiences . . . miracles . . . angelic visitations. I enjoy reading about other peoples spiritual events . . . they inspire me to seek a closer relationship with God.
