We have decided to continue Michael's story on a new blog site called "A Gift From Three Sixteen". You can find it at http://giftfrom316.blogspot.com
All along it has been our prayer that Michael would show Jesus to everyone his story touched. God orchestrated his brief life in such a way that we can only stand back in awe and say, in the way of Michael's namesake, "Who is like God?".
Michael was an incredible gift to us and showed us, and many others, how special life truly is, no matter how small that life is. In God's eyes and ours, he lived 252 days. In those 252 days and beyond, he impacted many beyond our imagination. But mainly he impacted his mommy and daddy. We are so proud of you, Michael!
Why 316? This is where we first met Michael and held him for as long as we could. Room 316 at Good Shepherd Hospital. This is where God gave us this gift. It is also where God speaks of His love for us through His own Son in the Gospel of John, Chapter 3, Verse 16:
"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son; that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."
We invite you to continue to read God's story through Michael - of how God loves us unconditionally; of how, despite the pain this world bears, we can have peace in our lives and hope through the tears. graceeffect.blogspot.com will continue and will certainly have Michael's story inter-weaved throughout its posts, but giftfrom316.blogspot.com will have as it's focus the Gift from 316.
