Libi Faith...what a difference in 6 months!

Listen into Brad and Amy's heart as they reflect on the last year and recent adoption of a little girl from China named Libi Faith who has some special needs...

It has been 6 months since Libi came home. How great our rejoicing in the miraculous changes we have seen in this little girl!

Some of you have never seen the video posted below. It was just 14 months ago that this was Libi Faith. To some, it may not be scary...

To Brad and I we were TERRIFIED!

Does anyone ever feel prepared or feel capable to care for a child with special needs? I feel so strongly that when God leads us into something that will be difficultchallengingbeyond what we think we are capable of...we want to run from it.

Oh that we would be people that would run to it! Knowing that our Loving and Great God will always be faithful to provide what we need for the task, and trusting in His goodness. It is in that place of trust and surrender that holds the greatest blessings for our lives! 

~ Brad and Amy

Just think that in this first video Libi was 2 years old, in China, and arrested developmentally...

Enjoy this giggling beauty...she has become quite animated. Thank You Father for what you have done...

I am praising God that he raised up Brad & Amy and their family to adopt and unconditionally love Libi - she is a life that will be forever changed...

...because they made themselves available to how God wanted to use them.  It hasn't been easy. It won't be easy in the future...but there is great joy in pouring our lives out for another and answering His calling.

Andy
