You raise me up by Leila Pao Wilks is a ‘must read’- especially for those who have suffered emotional trauma and are without hope and facing trials and testing. I found it gripping and got carried away in the moments of her despair, pain, sadness and new found joy. Truly captivating and thrilling!

I found this book to be refreshing due to it’s simplicity and ease to read. It would be suitable to a wide audience as there is nothing highfalutin about it what so ever. It left me humbled at how much a person can persevere and not give up no matter what!
Leila’s book has been a big blessing to me, which I hadn’t anticipated, but which I will be eternally grateful! A book I shall never forget!

After I read about the book of “You raised me up” By author Leila Wilks , I can say is that it thought me a lot of learning in terms of problems that we encounter in our daily lives and I can tell that this has been the most accurate book I have read about chronic pain.

A powerful story of a courageous, strong-willed woman, who faced all the challenges in her life with her head held high. Her faith and trust in God made her very strong and brought her to where she is now. reading her book encourages and inspires us to keep us going with life no matter how hard it may become. Meeting Leila and Ven in Mindanao in 2009 through a common dear friends Steve and Helen is God’s way of connecting us. I am very grateful for that wonderful time, as it was the beginning of a wonderful and meaningful friendship.

Each page of the book is as important as the other! It was an overwhelming display of God’s love, favor, protection, and faithfulness to the author Leila Wilks! My eyes can’t get off the book as soon as I started reading it! It is full of suspense, emotional turmoil and spiritual changed! Each page was soaked with tears as I could feel the authors heart and soul as she wrote her story! In God we are all victorious as the author became victorious in every page of her life because God works mysteriously! As a Filipino and friend of Leila and Venroy I will personally support her vision to build a foundation for Filipinos in the Philippines. God be the Glory.

I am not into reading books. However this one made me cry. This book is filled with many inspirational stories about how the author Leila Wilks overcame all the challenges in her life. She is a person who is filled with wisdom. She is one of the strong people I know and she gave me an idea how we should handle our life. I’ve learnt that we need to have the 5 f’s in order for us to maintain the balance of our life. She is such a strong fighter and I look up to her so much. I encourage all of you to read her book. you will learn a lot of things, on how to deal and manage all the trials that will come your way. She will definitely bring you closer to Him.
