Magdalena Grace

A precious little life has ended. Yesterday morning, Magdalena Grace Roberts left this world to be with Jesus. Although I knew this day would come, some part of me really hoped that God would choose to heal her completely. After all, He can do whatever He wants, right? What a miracle that would be! But Magdalena was a miracle in herself, and God did choose to heal her, just not in the way I would have chosen.
It's funny how attached you can get to someone you don't even know. Even though I never met her in person, reading about Magdalena's precious life has brought her into my heart just as surely as seeing her would. My heart aches for Noah and Julie, and I will miss their sweet baby girl.
Please pray for them. They are such and amazing couple, and their love of Magdalena is outweighed only by their love for Christ. www.noahandjulieroberts.blogspot.com
