Overview

Raising a special needs child is extremely challenging. To a parent, that life is a gift of sacrificial and loving service to one's child. It is a choice to live differently than most other families, and a continual renewal of loving support of the Catholic mindset of loving service to others. Yet, to a sibling of a child with autism, or other similar conditions, that sacrifice can at times seem like an endless amount of things that are taken from the sibling of a child with increased needs. Parental time seems stolen away, and these feelings can breed lifelong insecurities in a child who is left to pick up the pieces of the love that seems left over from their exhausted parents. Jesus Said, ""Be Not Afraid,"" is not only a story about having a sibling with a special need, but what that condition teaches us, by being exposed to it; growth in understanding of what it means to live sacrificially by transforming our lives in loving service of others. It is a journey that we all must walk at some point in our lifetime, a journey not usually of choice, but of consequence from living in a fallen world. It is a battle to grow closer to what Christ has taught, yet when a condition such as autism brings that experience to the forefront of one's life, at a young age, it quickly and powerfully can transform their entire world outlook. This book will leave you enveloped in a loving embrace from above as the magnificently illustrated pictures will ascend the childhood reader's thoughts into the divine. Jesus has told us to, ""Be not afraid."" Let us all strive to fulfill those words in the service of those who need us the most.
