    Struggling Chistian

    I am having issues spiritually as well as mentally. I'm looking for someone to pray for me and I will pray for you as well. I guess that's how it works.

    Clonidine

    I have not have very good experiences with ADHD medicines. I got prescribed this medicine for tics and ADHD and it made me feel horrible today. I felt trapped inside my own body if that makes any sense. And it made me feel sad. It also caused drowsiness and confusion. I don't know why my doctor...

    For Those Suffering with Mental Illness

    I put this together pretty fast, and I focused more on the structure than the actual words. I'd like to spend more time making a better one. Maybe something more eloquent but with structure as well. I think my next poem will be a sonnet. My favorite :) We are the faceless To them we are...

    If the Lord had Not Been on My Side

    This is inspired from Psalm 124. The question is, what is a time that the Lord has been on your side and delivered you from any hard time? I have many but this is what came to mind. Feel free to comment with your own testimonies in poetry form; it's actually quite fun. If the Lord had not been...

    To CFers Who Are Depressed

    I remember I spent many years in my teens suffering through depression in silence. People would ask me what was wrong, and I would say that nothing was wrong. I was afraid to say that I was hurting and honestly I've never been great at communicating my emotions. And I used to see showing sadness...

    Male to Female Ratio

    I'm curious to know what the general male to female ratio is at your church. Also, if you are male, what do you think it is about church that draws men away? I've read that there are a lot more women who go to church than men but I haven't noticed it that much in my church.

    Tortured for Christ (Free Book)

    I just started reading this book called Tortured for Christ. It's about the persucutions people face in other countries. It's a really encouraging and inspiring book. It makes you realize how little those of us (as a whole) in safe countries are doing for the Kingdom. We could do so much more...

    Prayer for brother-in-law

    One thing that God has called me to do is to pray for others. I got this message from my sister: Hey there Brooke! I just wanted to ask if you would add Brett to your prayer list in the coming days. When he went into work today his advisor fired him because apparently he lacks the mechanical...

    Serious Question (speaking in tongues)

    I've been to The Church of God before which practiced speaking in tongues. But it wasn't really my thing, it just scared me honestly. But I've heard some Pentecostals (and similar denominations) say that speaking in tongues is being truly baptized in the Spirit. Now I believe that accepting...

    Being bold in our faith

    Does anyone else get convicted of this? Before I became a Christian, I would have never been seen telling others about God. I would have never been seen worshiping, praying, or reading the Bible. The day I got saved, I wanted to tell others about Christ. It's a struggle that I have because I'm...
