I Will Carry You: The Sacred Dance of Grief and Joy

by Angie Smith

Book Overview

In 2008, Angie Smith and her husband Todd (lead singer of the group Selah) learned through ultrasound that their fourth daughter had conditions making her "incompatible with life." Advised to terminate the pregnancy, the Smiths chose instead to carry this child and allow room for a miracle. That miracle came the day they met Audrey Caroline and got the chance to love her for the precious two-and-a-half hours she lived on earth.

All-night tearjerker, best book

Ah, I cannot say enough how much God is in this book! A relatively quick read, I tore through it in just one night, sobbing uncontrollably, right along with the author. Are you looking to see God in your pain? Have you lost a loved one? Have you walked the path of pregnancy that didn’t go as planned? Read this.

A balm to my wounded heart.

Ms. Angie does a stellar job being honest about all the emotions of motherhood and loss. Reading this book bears her scars and the healing they have done after such tremendous loss. As I carry my fresh wounds it comforts my heart to see the healing and confidence she has. Her husband shares from his perspective in one chapter. There is some very helpful info in the back of the book. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 KJV [3] Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; [4] Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
