    by Carol McClain     @carol_mcclain I’d heard being stranded in a cave could cause blindness. Mostly it’s true for infants, but not for adults. Darkness impairs everyone’s vision. For example, miners develop jerky eye movements because they spend so much time in dark spaces. This concept of the damage living in the dark causes brings to mind a study by …[ read more ]

    by Carol McClain    @carol_mcclain Have you ever toured a cave? Last year, my family and I explored the Lost Sea in Speedwell, Tennessee. Lights strung along the path led us over ledges, around stalagmites, past underground streams. Deep into the cavern, the tour did what all cave tours do. They turned off the lights. Darkness so …[ read more ]

    by Carol McClain   @carol_mcclain Who judges? Not me! We all exclaim not me, yet… Recently I read an article in The Washington Post. Lizzy Velasquez was a bubbly, happy child until she went to school. She’d been born with a rare metabolic disease that makes her unable to maintain any body fat. She has 0%. If you’re like …[ read more ]

  • Judge Others? Judge Yourself

    by Carol McClain  @carol_mcclain “You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things” Rom. 2:1. Ever heard the expression, “Don’t point your finger at others. You have one directed at them, and three …[ read more ]

  • Yesterday’s Poison

    By Carol McClain @carol_mcclain Did you realize if you drank yesterday’s poison, you would still die? Lately, my blogs have dealt with the power of forgiveness. Forgiving never condones. It sets you free. Furthermore, friendships are critical to our lives. Without the power of honest friends, we may never be able to forgive. Today, I’m taking a …[ read more ]

    • Four Responses to Prayer. Which Fits You?

      arol McClain       @carol_mcclain  My roofer-brother-in-law flew four hundred miles to my house to put on a new roof. As a single mom with only my salary as support, his help was critical. He had one day. Of course, that day threatened rain. The wind already picked up and promised to deliver what the weatherman predicted. This couldn’t happen. I was walking to my car after picking up groceries to feed him, when the story of Jesus calming the wind came to mind (Matthew 8:23-27). Shyly (I was in a public place) I raised my hand to the wind and prayed, “Be still. Please… ...[ full story ]
