With God, There Is Always Hope for Something Better | His Grace

- After a childhood of painful abuse and neglect, Rebekah felt worthless, disgusting, totally confused about her identity, and absolutely sure there was no God. In her many tears, she felt everyone was against her. In her despair, while contemplating ending her life, she felt to ask a friend about his faith. In his response she felt a love and warmth enter the room.
Her relationship with God changed. She felt God’s grace. She now prizes her identity as a valued daughter of God. No matter what happens, she says, even if she changed her name, her relationship with God would remain the same.
Her life is now balanced, she says, though there are ups and downs. “Faith is feeling that Heavenly Father is there for you,” she said. “With God, there is always hope for something better.”
We used to be coworkers, and let me tell you: this is one of the best women on earth right here! She is kind, caring, compassionate, and a fantastic listener! She has a great personality, and is always there to talk about anything! Love you, Rebekah!
Jesus is the way the truth &the life
Amen, Jesus is our lord and saviour!
GodBless 🌕
no man cometh unto the father, but by me. (Jesus)
@@twenty-fivethirty-six3946 thanks for posting this is. I'll try to remember to look it up. Good bless you.
Wow. This video is exactly what I needed today. Yesterday was one of the worst days for me in years, and then I open my CZcams app this morning and see this posted 40 seconds earlier. I’m grateful to have access to these things and to hear these messages. And I’m happy that God answered my prayer.
He is always mindful of us
Q
Prayers sending your way and in the temple roll. Keep going. You never know what turn of events may happen when it feels the worst. Hold on. Let god know all of your fears. Write them down too if that helps. Reach out to people even if it’s two or three in the morning- it doesn’t hurt to ask. If you don’t have anyone in your life to reach out to pray for someone that is willing to help you in gods way and not a way to take advantage. Pray to believe him. All is not lost even if evidence says so- hold on.
I am happy with you, friend. This is why Jesus gave us 2 commandments in the New Testament. Most of us know the first one... to love our Heavenly Father.
We know the second one... love thy neighbor as thy self. We are assured of the first half... Love thy neighbor, no matter the circumstances and then we trail off the second part "as thy self". One day I read an article about this very thing.
I was in total awe that I had "discovered" (wink wink) the other half of loving my self. From that day forward I'm reassured that the more I love my self, the more room I get for Heavenly Father's love... now I "get it".
He is always with you! How are you today?
Hope this testimony will help many of us to get out of our distress and despair, and have Faith on God!!!
God bless her. People are wicked and the world is evil. But Gods love endures forever. 💯💖
As part of God's love, he is trying to teach and lead us all to be good people and not to be wicked to each other. It's sublime, the gift of true repentance!
Thank you for sharing. I now know I am not alone 💖💗🥰🗣️🙏🙏🙏
Luckily anyone can repent. Even the father or the friend. Believe and you can repent.
She’s been in some of my classes. Such a beautiful story!
What class do you teach?
Really, thats awesome!❤ I enjoyed hearing her story and testimony.
Beautiful testimony. God bless her. 💖
I was once lost, but now I am found. I identify through the king in which I serve. His name is Jesus.
"You are loved...but I need you to get back on the right path."
Now that hit me very hard.
Me too❤
Wonderful! Beautiful story! Amen ❤ I also have gone through some similar things and had a horrible childhood, but with God in the picture it sure is a lot easier to deal with. Hey, at least HE loves us!
Same! Yes! ♥️ He loves us and helps us.
You are so beautiful, clean and pure. You have a good heart and soul. Your life story and experiences are already helping so many people, teens as well as adults. You aren’t alone. I’m glad you sought help to get through each step in healing. It’s a daily effort to love, know and accept oneself. Serving others helps me heal and know my worth. Staying around positive people motivates us to continue on the right path and meet our goals. Much love and prayers to you and each person reading this that has gone through some hard times that perhaps no one else knows of. God is with you and it is His word that heals. Jesus carried the cross so you don’t have to carry the burdens alone.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints very likely saved my life when I was going down a dark path during teenage years. Had an incredible and unsolicited spiritual experience with my bishop during that time. I knew in that moment, the Church I blamed for all my terrible years as a kid was not only true after all, but it wasn't the Church's fault for the abusive home in which I lived.
This young lady is incredible. Beautiful video, well done! We have a Savior who died for each of us. Paid the debt for all our sins if we humbly take advantage of it and build a relationship with him. Heavenly Father has a plan for each of us even if things don't always go well or how we want.
oh I thought you meant "it was true that the church caused all your teenage problems" haha. Thanks for sharing your story as well!
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Praise the Lord our God, Jesus Christ! ✝️
Heart touching story! 😭😭.
Thanks for sharing and staying strong.
I been through same things but worst stay strong through it praying about it talking to god bout it Jesus Christ stay Strong thats what made want to be a G boss and loyalty over everything and god child Jesus Christ stay strong pray all is well because it horrible pray everyday through it
God is good! God is home. When I was converted and came unto Christ. I was baptized as a member of His Church.
The only words I actually remember being said were came from the brother conducting,, at the pulpit as, I approached my seat after changing back to dry clothing.
He said, "Welcome Home".
Absolutely beautiful ❤️ I hope she is blessed as her journey continues. There will still be ups and downs but with the Savior there is always hope. Like she said, there is always something better coming so don't give up!
Thank you for sharing your deepest feelings. Its hard.we never all have a perfect life. Our lifes journey will lead you to what is Special and waiting for you. Keep your Heart ❤ Open.
Dear Rebecca, I am happy you have gotten over your low points in life. You admit there are still days you feel down, but this is all part of the healing process. The fact that you recognise these moments means you are on the road to recovery. You are an inspiration to many. God bless you always.
“Even though it happened, that does not define you” 💕
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your story!! It's super hard, but this is going to help a lot of people who felt alone fell welcome again.
I'm grateful for this wonderful message. I really love the principles and the doctrines that i learn.
Thanking you very much sister Rebekah.
A beautiful daughter of God.
These are always posted exactly at the right time ❤️
AMEN I love my saviour and Heavenly father so much!!!!!!
I used to feel useless, like no one would want to be around me. I was just not some one who anyone would ever want as a friend. Now I know I am loved, Father loves me, He is everything to me.
You are a daughter of a KING!
Yes you are His daughter! 🙏😊
I went through some really hard times also and was begging Heavenly Father to take me home. But this pain brought me to my knees a lot and through it, I got to feel God's love for me. Eventually this relationship I got with God from having this pain, made me grateful for the trial, because had I not had that trial, I might not have found God the way I did.
I use to be so focused on healing the pain, but the thought came to me one day, " it's not about healing, it's about becoming" and then I took a good look at myself and could see that because of this massive pain, I had become more Christlike in many ways, less judgemental, more patient, more loving. I learned to leave my pain at the feet of the Savior and to let go of things I cannot control.
So now when I tell my story, I can honestly say that I am grateful for it, because what I gained was far better and more precious to me and have brought me more peace and joy.

Thank you for sharing your journey and your hope. You are a beautiful - inside and out - daughter of God.
I have a Chromecast from my phone to my TV. I put this video on my TV for my kids to watch it too. My 3 year old...even though she doesn't completely understand what you said ...felt that you are a special amazing individual who has been through a lot. And she kissed the TV when she saw your face 🥰😍💞 very precious. She knows who you are through Christ.
You are Loved by many People .......Your story has touched many People ........You're a wonderful Daughter of Heavenly Father
"God is Love!" Thank you for sharing your experiences to help others.
What a precious and powerful daughter of Heavenly Father you are. Thank you for sharing your story and your faith.
There but for the grace of God, go I.
In the end, we are what we are. A child of God.🙏🙏
Life is hard. We have to endure. Better things are coming.
His love and grace is everlasting
Ive been through a lot this past year and even week. This video has really helped!
Thank you for sharing your very personal life history. Thank you for being open to receiving Our Heavenly Father's love and compassion. I pray to be able to trust enough one day, to share my own personal story just as you did. Many blessings to you as you continue this journey called life.
Thank you for sharing your difficulties. You are an inspiration to SO many 💖
I felt sorry that she had to go through that, but im glad she knows God and she is doing better.♥️
God speed ✊we all can do this if we Believe
God Bless you 🙏🏻
Dear Sister how I love you and your Faith! You are beautiful inside and out and my prayer is that the Lord will pour out his blessings upon you. You are certainly deserving of his kindness. You are a beautiful soul. Love your brother in Christ.
Incredible share and story of hope, change and reconciling with God and self. Finding my place and standing with God and myself has taken years to define but when achieved the peace the confidence and perspective of life all changed and begins to make sense. Welcome home. God bless you and to all.
Thank you so much for sharing such a personal story. You are an example of strength. Keep holding on, you inspire us all.
thank you so much you don't really know how your story help my soul..., I really need this! Heavenly father knows what we are going through...
Thank you for sharing your raw journey. I'm learning the Lord reaches to the depths of our despair and binds us to Him in our experiences of abandonment. He looks for us to see, feel and know Him for He is our true identity and destination. By taking His name and learning His ways and living His words and treasuring His promises we become ONE. Christ truly is the only way.
Love this 💛
Such A Beautiful Story!
Thanks for Shane this beautifull video 😇✨. Gave me hope, and make me feel peace in my Heart, mind and hope
Amen 🙏🏽 ✝️
Thanks for sharing!
I see it as a vote of confidence from above to suffer terrible abuses, particularly when young and innocent. If there's Agency, choice, then there's likely abuses to happen. Jesus Christ is in the crisis's of our lives. He suffered to the point of blood coming from every pore, in order to pay for abuse, so that all can be/will be healed, both victims and perpetrators.
Faith is: the reason I strive to change my whole life, even though I didn't know if I could ever escape the harm done in my past. I trust that through the Savior, Jesus, we can all be happy as we have desired to be, even more fully than we knew possible.
Thank you so much for your story
What a beautiful girl. Thank you for sharing your beautiful message and journey with us. God bless you on the beautiful journey of life and your walk with the Lord ♥️
That's beautiful
God bless her♥️
Such a inspiring story 😇
“Now, it may surprise you to learn that in His efforts to get permanent possession of a soul, [God] relies on the troughs even more than on the peaks; some of His special favorites have gone through longer and deeper troughs than anyone else... It is during such trough periods, much more than during the peak periods, that it is growing into the sort of creature He wants it to be... He wants them to learn to walk and must therefore take away His hand; and if only the will to walk is really there He is pleased even with their stumbles.” -CS Lewis
My goodness now my problems don't seem so large. I loved your thoughts!
Thank you for sharing your experience.You make me inspire and I know a million or billion of young women can feel this way too if they watch this video🥺🥺🥺
Wow, I just love that video so much! I feel like that even when we struggle in life, God can bring us up and show us His light. My faith in God has strengthened so much in my life, even though I didn't have a experience like her. I know that God loves me and He is always there for me! 💕
I went through these feelings about God this week. Thanks I needed this.
Jesus give us love🙏❤
God is love✨
Watching a video about dark times and then having Gods grace with you is inspirational
So interesting that she says "No matter what happens, I can change my name" - indeed, that is what Christ has done for us and will always do for us when and if we allow Him to. He gives us a new name to be called, and we are changed and become better than this life's accomplishments or circumstances, become more than this mortal offering, become purer and cleaner and holier than all we experience or even hope for.
Thank you so much for being brave enough to share your experience and inspiring others! Thanks from Brazil!
🙏❤️ Thank you Rebecca. For sharing this with me. Definitely helped me feel God’s love.
God loves you and he always there for you, when you need him.
Rebekah...many thanks for sharing your testimony with me and thousands of others. Your testimony has added strength to mine.
Beautiful. God is love, and knowing we are children of God can give us an incredible strength and freedom.
This will help many others who began with similar circumstances, sadly they are too common and I am sorry these things happened to you but look how you have grown and begun to heal and now give hope to others. Thank you so much.
You are precious. This earth life is so beautiful with us in it
I just came across this video and its something that I needed to watch!!
You are amazing. Wishing you happiness, comfort and peace xx
Love, love, love your story! You are beautiful. Thank you for sharing it. It takes a lot of courage to stand up. For those who have been assaulted, may you find hope and healing and know that you are more precious than anything in this world.
Thank you for your story; you have such a powerful testimony. Your voice will be so helpful to so many.
So grateful for this young women's courage, faith, Love and testimony. And she is right. God is the answer.
so beautiful!
Thank you for sharing this experience that gives us hope to believe that with the help of Heavenly Father we can overcome the challenges and get over long periods of failure. You're such a nice girl, I admire you. God bless you Rebekah.
Thank you for sharing this. It was extremely touching. I sent this to my daughter. I pray that your message touches her heart.
That was so moving. We are never alone. Reach out and he will hold you. Always remember Nephi's dream. Faith brings hope, hope brings love, love brings our Father to us.
This is rough, darn it... have hope!
You are beautiful,you are good, you are my sister and Heavenly Father loves us as we are His daughters. Love you too!
She is in my stake! I had no idea about her story! I am so glad she could find some peace with what she has been through.
This gives me some hope because I can relate to this because I do feel worthless most of my life
Keep praying
Thanks for this❤
