The Life We Never Expected by Andrew and Rachel Wilson Review and giveaway

Have you ever wondered just what it would be like to raise an autistic child? How about two? How would you measure your faith if it were tested daily? I have been reading a book about two parents that gave birth to two wonderful children who ended up being autistic. The parents, Andrew and Rachel share insightful details of how they have learned in the day to day to keep their eyes focused on the Lord and continue to praise Him in the rain. So many things I took for granted until I saw just how blessed I am. My daughter was learning disabled and it was a labor of love to raise her. I knew that others didn’t have the same cross to bear as I did, but I recognized that there were many others whose walk was much more difficult than mine. I learned over and over just how much grace and mercy God doles out on a daily basis. Andrew and Rachel have bared their hearts in this book. Sharing how many different ways they used their experiences with their two children, even in the midst of trials, to bring home a message not only of salvation, but of continued devotion to their relationship with Christ. I felt the love of God reaching through the pages to touch my heart. I love that they never once said “Look at me. Aren’t I a great person for telling you my story!” Their attitude was one of humility, giving all credit to God for all the ways He provided for them. I would recommend this to anyone to read. It’s not just for parents of autistic children. I think the message is one that we all could stand to hear.
