Amazing, life transforming devotional. This is the first time I was brave enough to write down my feelings, and it truly changed my life and thinking. Can't recommend highly enough. Thank you Holley!

This 40 day devotional book was given to me through God's timing in the midst of a raging storm. Holley is truly gifted and writes with the power and inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

Rain on Me is a 40 day devotional book for anyone walking through life's storms. If you are traveling through a painful time or if you know someone who is, this beautifully written book speaks directly to the heart. Holley Gerth offers real life stories while leading readers to soak in His Truth. Rains On Me is written by someone who has been there, who has experienced brokenness, but found healing.

Each devotional ends with a passage to read, an area to reflect on what God is telling you, and a place for the reader to respond or journal their own thoughts. Holley Gerth covers topics like: It's Ok to Not Be Okay, Where Is God When it Rains, The Beauty of Brokenness, The "Do What You Can" Plan, to name a few. I highly recommend this book, it is one I am going to read over and over again.

I began reading this tiny volume on a sunny afternoon in 2009 or 2010. The Lord has brought me so far and yet I still need the same reminders.In my case, this devotional found me just after my 2nd miscarriage. I needed someone like Holly who could assure me that I was allowed to write a "loss resume", and "Name That Hurricaine". Holley is open, honest, and walks beside us on a 40 day journey making us feel that we have gained a friend.
