Although divorce blindsided me and changed me forever, No Ordinary Days is about much more than that. It's about seeing God's hand in our busy and often chaotic lives. It's about hearing His voice. It's about glimpses into His grace amidst the most ordinary things - from a laundry room in Germany to a bouncing truck headed for Baja to a suddenly unmarried life in Spain. The stories are real, not always pretty, but honest. Through them I seek to show how we can be deceived about who we are and what we believe. We are often not as good as we had thought or as holy as we had hoped, but when we open our hearts, God opens our eyes to who He is and moves to heal and help. He shows up when least expected in the most ordinary moment and makes it remarkable. He touches you, frees you, and uses people you never imagined along the way. That's what this book is about: there are no ordinary days. Rebecca Jacob grew up in Mexico City but has lived in Spain for over forty years. She pastors a church in the heart of Madrid and frequently speaks at women's retreats, youth camps, and leadership conferences. Whether in front of a crowd or speaking one-on-one over coffee, Rebecca has the ability to teach spiritual truths with a sense of humor, joy, and anecdotes in abundance. Her happiest moments are when she is surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and Tessa, her Portuguese podengo.
