  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Starting over

How does a Christian start over after loss of a soul-mate? Can anyone help me?
Honestly, one breathe at a time. One prayer at a time. One step at a time. No one can tell you when you're going to be o.k. Everyone grieves in different ways. The best thing you can do is give your grief to God, though. Tell Him it's bigger than you. Let Him help you cope with your loss. Don't rush into anything. Try not to make any big decisions the first year. Take it one day, one minute, at a time. Keep praying. God bless you.

Faithgoeson, Thank you for your encouraging words. I find it especially hard when trying to transfer bills, vehicles, house etc. into my own name. It seems most people want a copy of the death certificate or will, or both, and this is very hard to hand over. Do you know of any reading material, study guides or Bible passages that can help in this area?
