bookshelves: books

Ben Carson was a young inner-city boy who grew up with out a father. His mother was single and she could barely support her kids. She could barely read and her occupation could hardly support the kids. She often went into some kind of psychiatric problems and had to be stay in a hospital for a few days. The struggles of the family continued. Ben fell to the bottom of his class and developed an uncontrollable temper. His mother Sonya would not give up on her kids. She would often encourage her children to work harder and trust in God and would be successful. Ben grew to like reading and discovering. He flew to the top of his class in every subject and became one of the top neurosurgeon in the world.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in a true life story of how hard work, dedication, and trusting in God can give you success in life. Ben would often give credit to how God put people around his to help him be successful. He would often come to a medical case that seemed impossible and he didn't have faith that anything could be done, he was wrong. God worked everything out and reminded Carson that He was in control.
