Magdi did not form her friendship with Christ only for the decades of her earthly life. She knew that a true relationship of love lasts forever. This eternal goal drew her onward in daily life, in festive moments, and even in the darkest hours. The seriousness and strength of a decision are revealed in difficult moments. Magdi was a lively and joyful soul who lived fully and brought life where people had already given up, spiritually walking the path of death. When it became necessary, she knew how to give up her earthly life for Christ in order to remain entirely His. She did not seek death, but she knew she could only truly live by giving her life completely. "Lord, my King!… Take me to Yourself!" – these were her last words when a soldier shot her after she resisted his attempt to violate her. She was capable of dying for what she lived for. Her death was, on one hand, a tragic loss. On the other hand, she gave her life for Christ, the Risen One, because her eyes were not fixed only on earthly life but also on eternity. She wanted to die a death that would show the way to Christ. When we look at her, we celebrate the victory of life that Christ gave us through His resurrection and that Magdi won through her martyrdom. More
