Here is a highlight of my story and what I now call....Becca’s New Song.
My name is Rebecca Cook and I live in Florida. I am a 36 year old single mother of 2 boys. I was
born and raised in Phoenix in a Christian family. My Parents served God and tried to show me how
much they loved me. I am the youngest child in our family and have an older brother and sister. I
grew up in (what the world would call) “the perfect” family, yet I always felt that I didn’t belong in this
family and that God made a mistake by placing me there. Frankly, I thought God just made a mistake
by making me.
My story is about the incredible miracle God has performed in my life almost 2 years ago. He has set
me free and delivered me. You see, I was in a life long battle. Almost every sin that a woman could
commit, I did. Because of the pain from feeling unloved, unaccepted, not belonging anywhere, and
simply just not good “enough”, I walked down a path of rebellion, sin and destruction which led me
into a life of bondage and shame. My parents took custody of my boys for 2 and ½ years as I sank
further into the dark pit that had become my life.
At this time, my diagnosis were: Bulimia, Alcoholic, Drug Addict (Chrystal meth), Obsessive Compulsive
Disorder, Panic Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Bi-Polar, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder,
Dissociative Disorder, Agoraphobia (fear of going outside) and Germaphobia, just to name a few!!
I was on nine different medications prescribed by my Psychiatrist. This was my battle for twenty
years. I have been in five of the best treatment centers in America, only to have my final report stating
that I “would barely be able to ever function in society. I would need to be on medication for the
rest of my life.” WHAM.....not a story of hope!! But God..................................I went to Africa with a
missionary and during a prayer session, God set me free and delivered
me from it ALL.
I am now a full time homeschooling mom and have my boys living with
me. God healed and restored my family and made up for the years the
locusts had eaten. I am on NO medicine and I walk free from it all. I
have not one time even had a craving for Chrystal Meth. That in and of
itself is a miracle. God cares about depression, He cares about emotional
and mental pain, He wants to set the captives free, and He still
does. My story is a story of freedom and power. God healed me completely
and my desire is to share my story of hope and healing and to
proclaim that He is waiting to perform another miracle right now. |
