"Bring the Rain"

There is a very powerful blog called "Bring the Rain." It's written by Angie, the wife of a member of the Christian band "Selah." Their family has been through so much, including the loss of their daughter on the day she was born. The blog address is her name, Audrey Caroline.
Bring the Rain blog

The blog is about her dealing with her grief and handling every-day life as a Christian wife, mother and friend but most importantly, it chronicles her walk with the Lord and is so honest and powerful. It always inspires me.

Her most recent post (called "BLINK") speaks, in a roundabout way, of the idea of small sacrifices. It's the moment-to-moment reality of our faith that matters. It's embracing this very moment and not stewing over past mistakes or worrying about tomorrow--it's living in the NOW. Pleasing God in the now. Walking with him all day, every day.

I hope you'll check it out. If you need a good cry and/or a huge dose of inspiration, read the story about Audrey. It's one of the most moving real-life stories I have ever read, and it's still being written. This family is amazing.

The music on her blog is good, too! :)
