Isaiah was eighteen years old when he was diagnosed as being on the Autism Spectrum along with having OCD. It was a relief for the young man to finally have a name for what he had been feeling and experiencing for so long. For his parents, it was a different story. They had never observed any signs or symptoms that would have led them to believe their son might be autistic. At least, there were none they knew to look for. Autism in Hindsight is a conversation between mother and son about getting diagnosed, working through it the process, and learning to connect the dots. Along the way they discovered it is often only in hindsight that you can move forward.

Keep praying. Keep believing. The bond between mothers and daughters has long proved to be amazingly resilient. Yet during those trying, turbulent and even destructive hormonally-charged teenage years, that bond can take a beating. Loving moms can come unglued and all but lose their sanity when scrambled hormones turn their sweet, little girl into a cyclone of emotions. When hormones are raging, emotional battles of will can pit mothers against daughters, sometimes escalating into shouting matches that end with daughters stomping off in anger and moms in tears, overwhelmed and in desperate need of encouragement. Scramble Hormones: 60 Days of Encouragement for Moms Raising Teenage Daughters shares brief devotions from one mom to another - a mom who has been there, done that and survived by learning to lean on God for strength.

If you are longing to experience all that God has planned for your life-infinitely beyond your highest prayers, desires, and dreams, I challenge you to read this book and bask in A Breath of Inspiration.
