As a child, Rebekah Stoltzfus suffered a freak accident that left her legs paralyzed. Now, confined to a wheelchair, she feels she'll never measure up to the expectations of her Pennsylvania Amish community, where a woman is expected to marry and raise a family. Though she longs to be loved, she prays for a way to be self-supporting.
Daniel Beachy would like to court Rebekah, but she's convinced herself that she would be a burden to a husband, and has determined that love is not available to her. Will Rebekah's search for a miracle come true? Or, will she miss God's gift in the battle that puts her between self-pity and the determination to be independent?
