    By: Carol McClain        carol_mcclain Have you ever prayed and prayed and prayed and nothing ever happened? If you’ve been a Christian for any length of time, I don’t have to guess at the answer. Unfortunately, to us mortals with mortal desires, sometimes the answer is no.

    Carol 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.

    Carol McClain   @carol_mcclain With childlike faith, I decided I would write a novel about a paramedic. I naively researched the profession and assumed I had the correct information. I wasn’t so naive as to think it was perfect. During this time period, I wondered, too, if I was called to write. I belonged to a floundering critique group …[ read more ]

    By Carol McClain:   @carol_mcclain “Two thirds of the praying we do is for that which would give us the greatest possible pleasure to receive.

    By Carol McClain:  @carol_mcclain I’m going to share the least favorite verse of everyone:  “For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry” Habakkuk 2:3 KJV. Who has time for waiting? Who …[ read more ]

      From the Blog

    • By: Carol McClain @carol_mcclain I know. It's been a while since I've been on my blog. You know. Life's so busy--so many social engagements, fairs, family gatherings ... So many lies. I've more than likely not taken my own medicine. The prescription can be found in Proverbs 17:22: "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine:" The last chapter of 2020 closed a few weeks ago, but not without promising us more heartache in 2021.
