• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Goodness this is Scary

I'm scared of lots of things. I'm commonly known as a pansy! lol The dark, losing the people I love, not being able to be with Paul one day, not having my dreams come true... You shouldn't run from your fears, you should face them with God's strength and power. However, I'm not ANY good at facing them!!!! lol

Hey What scares you most. What d u do with your fears? Face them or Run?:scratch:
Heights. Definitely heights.

Today I was changing some light bulbs at my church. You do it from the attic (above the lights) about 50 feet above the floor. As I was changing one, the grill that holds it up broke and it (as well as the light and light fixture) crashed to the floor. I was so shaken by the sight that it took me almost 10 minutes to start working again.

Some weird ones there...

Having others angry at me
I used to be afraid of this happening, too. It's inevitable, though. Angry people will be angry people. Just sigh and move on.

Sea lions
Where do you live?

Divorce
Amen. And amen.

I hate having people angry at me or yelling at me. Probably brings back memories of growing up. My mom yelled a lot for no apparent reason. :( She also didn't trust me and always thought I was lying to her even though I practically did nothing wrong at all and always told her the truth. I think it might very possibly stem from that.

Sea Lions, that has a lot to do with where I grew up. It was on an isolated island in the middle of nowhere and at night you could hear the sealions moaning from the outer bay and it sounded so dark and lonely and creepy. Kind of like a foghorn, but much more disturbing and continual.

Divorce, yea self-explanitory. To prevent that I will only marry a person who does not believe in divorce. (I hope)

My childhood was a lot like that. I'll say a prayer for you tonight. Like I said, these problems are inevitable.
