You will fall in love with Moise and his family from page one of Only Jesus Knows. When you read this book you will have a hard time putting it down... because it's so heartbreakingly raw and sad and inspiring and engaging and entertaining... and it's all true. Moise's life story engages like fiction... but it's not fiction.
Only Jesus Knows taught me much about Individuals with Developmental Disabilities. Maybe this is partly why this book affected me so much: I didn't know. I believe God has done and is still doing amazing things through Moise's life. IDD are an invisible voiceless population among us. This book is their voice, and author Karol Glueck Holmes is its steward.
This book is not just a plea for awareness of and help for IDD. It is profound Biblical truth...it is not only Moise's story but also the Gospel story. These two stories are woven together in an incredible way that only God can orchestrate. From salvation and redemption to conception and pro-life to grief and loss - this book explores it all. God has used Moise's family and their myriad of experiences for His purposes and to further His Name. The crazy hard of Moise's life - and thus that of his family - is so wonderfully balanced by his family's crazy love for him. It is stunning.
Only Jesus Knows is the perfect God-ordained Spirit-inspired message of unconditional love that needs to be shared. It's rare, it's powerful, and it's breathtakingly beautiful.
