A Christian Perspective on Autism

This video is about my experience as a mother with two children on the autism spectrum. As a Christian, I have learned that my children were created by God for a reason, and although I used to feel depressed about their struggles, I’ve learned that I don’t need to worry about how we are viewed when we go out in public, whether they can do as much as other kids can do, or even about what their future will hold, because God is in control, he created them ON PURPOSE, and no matter what challenges we face, I can trust Him. My kids aren’t tokens that reflect my self-worth. They are God’s children, and they each have a soul and a purpose for their life. And their purpose doesn’t have to be what I had planned for them before they were born.
If you have a child with special needs, this video may give you a different perspective than a lot of other videos on this subject. Thanks for checking it out!
