We hope you enjoy it. Thanks for dropping by. All Railway Travelers, I escaped slavery to be free. I remember crossing into Pennsylvania, a free state. When I found I had crossed that line, I looked at my hands to see if I was the same person. There was such a glory over everything; the sun came like gold through the trees, and over the fields, and I felt like I was in Heaven. There is an even better glory here. I chat with Moses on occasion. I’m forever grateful. I helped thousands cross from slavery into the Promised Land. But in all honesty, it wasn’t me, it was the Lord! I always told Him, ‘I trust to you. I don’t know where to go or what to do, but I expect You to lead me,’ and He always did. He will also lead you, if you will just let Him. Harriet Tubman Is Harriet Tubman in Heaven? Without doubt, if anyone could earn her way into heaven, Harriet Tubman is there right now. But no one earns her way to heaven. So what clues point to us believing that Harriett Tubman is in heaven? Harriet Tubman is in heaven today because she claimed to have a personal relationship with Christ. In addition, she was involved in a dynamic church culture during her time as a slave and continued to serve God and her community up until her death. According to abolitionist Thomas Garrett: I never met with any person, of any color, who had more confidence in the voice of God, as spoken direct to her soul. She frequently told me that she talked with God, and he talked to her every day of her life . . . she said she never ventured only where God sent her, and her faith in the Supreme Power was truly great. Harriet Tubman was born in 1822 on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Her parents named her Araminta Ross. Not until she married did she change her name. Throughout her life as a slave she was beaten, whipped, starved and forced to work for her owner. Then at the age of 27, and in fear of being sold to plantation owners in the Deep South, Harriet made her escape with the help of whites and blacks to make the dangerous journey 90 miles north to Philadelphia. When she arrived in free territory, she described her feelings. "I looked at my hands to see if I was the same person now I was free. There was such a glory over everything, the sun came like gold through the trees and over the fields, and I felt like I was in heaven.” Tubman wanted other slaves to experience the same freedom. She made multiple trips back into the slave states to lead them out of bondage and into freedom. She became the underground railroad's most celebrated “conductor." Tubman was honored to be called the black Moses for her efforts. She claimed to have never lost a passenger during her 19 trips into the South and back. She helped hundreds of slaves journey north to freedom in the most dangerous of circumstances. The five foot tall woman, with bounties placed on her head, continued to serve God by leading His people out of slavery. The comparisons to Moses leading his people out of slavery in Egypt to the promised land were not missed. Her friends and fellow abolitionists claimed that her strength came from her faith in God. "I always told God, ‘I'm going to hold steady on you, and you've got to see me through.'"
