Schweighardt Family Adoption Adventures in Liberia

• Apr. 27, 2007 - News From ACFI

Well, despite all the new info that is rolling around our heads and all the change that is going on with ACFI (for the better ), we have heard some very comforting news.  Kristi from ACFI said that she spoke with the workers in Liberia and they have spoken with someone who knows where a family member of our boys is.  Kristi thinks that it is possible for the relinquishments to happen within the next 2 weeks!!  That would be so great!!  I am going to keep thinking positive about this but I do need to remember that "This is Africa!"  It would be really great if this happened, though.  You see, my precious Hannah told me just last week that she felt like God told her that it was going to happen in 2 to 4 weeks.  She has been quite adamant about this!

I think that is so neat for Hannah.  She is only 8 years old.  I pray each day that God will allow my children to hear His voice at a young age.  We encourage our children to walk in faith and to speak to God often.  It brings me such joy to hear her talk like this.  I know that she is growing in the Lord and that just brings such happiness to my heart.

Deuteronomy 30:20 says, "and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to His voice, and hold fast to Him.  For the Lord is your life, and He will give you many years in the land He swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob."  John 10:27 says, "My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me."  God wants us to hear Him.  He wants to whisper sweet words into our hearts.  He longs to have a relationship with each and everyone of us!

I know Hannah has a close relationship with God.  She is a little prayer warrior and she prays daily for her Liberian brothers.  It does not suprise me at all that she has heard quiet whispers on her heart.  She has a deep faith for her age.  We can learn so much from the little ones around us!  God can speak through them in ways we could have never thought of.

Please join Hannah in her prayers that the relinquishment happens within the next couple of weeks!  I know we have lots of prayer warriors out there!!!  Let them rise up to our Heavenly Father!!!
