    You may be in the middle of the drought, you may not see any evidence of rain in the sky: But Elijah didn't say he saw, he said he heard: The Sound is your sign (The rain is on the way)

I can't see it, I can't touch it, I don't feel it but it's on the way. How do I know it's coming this ...read more
