In Be the Hands and
Feet, Nick Vujicic shared his personal testimony and the lessons he learned
in his life. Nick was born without arms and legs and he had to discover how to
live his life regardless. Nick opened up about how at first he wanted to be a
professional soccer player. The officials turned him down because the other
players wouldn’t be able to stop him and it wouldn’t be a fair game. His dad
was a pastor and his dad thought an accountant would be a good career for him. Nick
didn’t dream of becoming a pastor. He eventually went into motivational
speaking and he spoke to many different youth groups. It led to bigger and
better things. He soon was speaking at Bible clubs, youth groups, and church
congregations and he filmed a DVD called, “Life Without Limb”. In this book, he
shared how we can bring souls to Christ and how we can be the hands and feet of
Jesus. Even though he lacks limbs, Nick is able to use his life to influence
and made a difference in other people’s lives.
Nick Vujicic shared scriptures throughout the book and he
looked at the important scripture of Galatians 5:22-23 and the fruits of the
spirit. Nick has seen an amazing response when he tells his audience that he
loves them unconditionally like Christ loves them. There are many people crying
when he shares this. Many people line up to give him hugs and this made him
realize how desperately we are all wanting to hear that someone loves us. I
wonder how many people would change, if we would truly love our neighbor. Would
we see school shooting decrease and stop finally?
I would recommend this amazing book to anyone who is
needing to be uplifted and they need encouraged to keep running their race by
reaching out to others and building them up. I have always connected to Nick’s
story and how he felt so alone and depressed. He thought he had no future when
he was in his teens. He eventually found his purpose and he got married and has
even fathered four children. If he would have committed suicide back when he
was at his lowest point of his life, he wouldn’t have been able to accomplish
his God given destiny by reaching out to others and being the hands and feet of
Jesus. I liked how the book revealed stories about how others thought outside
of the box and they have been able to make a difference for God’s Kingdom. I
really enjoyed the foster parents, Peter and Isabel story and how they are
faithfully in trying to make sure all of the foster children learn they are
loved and that someone cares about them. Some of the kids have been through
very horrible situations and they don’t know how to trust anyone. This book
will provide encouragement to readers to reach out to others and make an impact
on their lives!
