don't know if you are familiar with Mercy Me's song "Bring the Rain"~ but it is fantastic... the lyrics include "And I know there will be days when this life brings me pain, but if that is what takes to praise you, then Jesus, bring the rain." i clung to that verse myself the fall of 2007 thru some challenging circumstances and still echo it in my head at times... but this amazing woman, Angie Smith, whose husband is Todd Smith of the contemporary Christian group Selah has TRULY claimed this verse... when you have some time, i can't encourage you enough to read her story... what an amazing God we serve. He truly is good~ even when life couldn't seem worse. yesterday, in my Bible study, i read a C.S. Lewis quote "in our pleasures God whispers, but in our pain He shouts"... how true this is... and you can't help but see the truth in Angie's story~ God is shouting to her, and the best part is she is listening to Him. check out her blog @ audreycaroline.blogspot.com.
