During one sleepless yet fateful night, she experienced the lowest point in her life: she was unable to care for her baby and was completely humbled physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. In desperation she cried out to God, and He responded. Now, two years later, she shares the miraculous ways that God transformed her life and created a heart shift in that season of hardship. Heart Shift and Motherhood offers a raw and relatable narrative in which Rebekah reveals insights about surrender, humility, gratitude, obedience, faith, unity, and love in the context of the nitty gritty of daily life with young kids. With humor and hope, she seeks to empower your faith to believe that God can show His extra in your ordinary. This personal story presents one mother’s struggle and transformation, showing how God can create miracles even amid monotony.
