Being unstoppable is about believing and achieving. It’s about having faith in yourself, your talents and your purpose and, most of all, in God’s great love and His divine plan for your life.

Millions around the world recognize the smiling face and inspirational message of Nick Vujicic.  Despite being born without arms or legs, Nick’s challenges have not kept him from enjoying great adventures, a fulfilling and meaningful career, and loving relationships.  Nick has overcome trials and hardships by focusing on the promises that he was created for a unique and specific purpose, that his life has value and is a gift to others, and that no matter the despair and hard times in life, God is always present.

My Review:   
I would first like to say that this book was a very encouraging type of book. And author Nick Vujicic is an amazing author. 

I did enjoy reading how he overcome many many obstacles in his life time. But I will have to say that it is not my type of book and that I had a bit of a time reading it. 

I am not going to get into the book. The synopsis really tells alot about it, so I do not want to give away anything else. 

And so due to the above I am giving this book as of now a Breath of Life Rating of:

Four Clock Rating!!!

Disclosure: I did receive this book in exchange for my review. But the opinions are mine, your opinion may differ, and that is fine with me.
