Recently I held the body of a baby who had gone to be with God. So beautiful. So peaceful.
She had died in God's time. In her whole life she had only known love, safety, comfort and peace. She had everything she needed. She had never known pain, and never will. She was known: by her parents, her siblings, and God.
We had prayed for God's will to be done in her life, and the lives of her family. We had prayed for mercy, that she would suffer no pain in her life.
What did I learn from this child?
God answers prayer in his time and in his way.
God loves each child of his.
Thank you to the parents of this child who allowed me to have this very special moment holding their baby, and also to share my reflections here.
