  • Seven Steps to Happiness (According to Goats)
    Posted on Monday, February 14th, 2022 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: @carol_mcclain, 7 steps to happiness, goats, how to be happy, how to find happiness, joy, Proverbs 10:28, Writing Redemption

    @carol_mcclain The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hopes of the wicked come to nothing. Proverbs 10:28 Do you find happiness elusive these days? I mean, we’ve got supply chain issues, COVID issues, Russian issues, and probably a lack of tissues to combat the tears caused by our issues. Take a lesson from goats. …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain [3] And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. [4] Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18: 3-4 Ever since my teen years–eons ago–I’ve …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain A lifetime fled without my ever having glimpsed a comet. In 1973 Kahoutec visited our skies when I lived in New York City. With the city’s manmade display of lights, my chances of seeing Kahoutec were non-existent. Actually, the city had little to do with my ability to witness the comet. I was too …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain Isaiah 61:3 “(God will) provide for those who grieve in Zion–to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain My grandkids drive me crazy. For the youngest, my Bird, ketchup is the major food group. My middle one–my favorite grandson (yes, only grandson)–only chicken fingers will do. The eldest has a broader palate, thankfully. When they come to visit, and I set something that is not ketchup or chicken fingers before them, they aren’t …[ read more ]

    • Are you a peacemaker or a troublemaker?

      by Carol McClain Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. Matt, 5:9   Christian: are you a peacemaker or a troublemaker? Non-Christian: are you blaming the Christian for your lack of faith? Look at the checklists below and see how you need to adjust your attitudes. [caption id="attachment_2656" align="aligncenter" width="300"] We are the salt and the light? Do we act like it?[/caption]     When reading the Beatitudes, do not think you have to be a good-works-doer to become a child of God. Ask yourself these question--if the answer to ALL is yes--you're a child… ...[ full story ]
