• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

You don't have to answer if you don't want to, but is there something specific that makes you feel this way?
It's due to primarly to me being unemployed and I'm living with my parents because it, it just makes me feel like a loser and a failure.

Did you know, that in England now, the average person is living with their parents until they reach 30?

There's this huge stigma attached to it, and it doesn't mean anything. Think back to the past, when Christian values were what governed society. People lived at home until they were married, right? And even then, people frequently lived with family, and extended family. It's just modern, secular society that tells us living with parents is bad. It's not bad. In many ways, it's the right thing to do.

As to employment, millions of people are unemployed. Billions, maybe. Is *everyone* a failiure? Or are you calling yourself that because you judge yourself harsher than anyone else? If you wouldn't consider another person a loser just cos they're currently unemployed, you shouldn't think that way about yourself, either :hug:

:hug: :kiss: :hug: I sure love you sweetie pie!
I am doing splendid. In fact I am better than I have been in years. Praise the Lord! :bow:

The horrible horrible time I had with doubts, I shouldn't even call it doubts, my faith was almost gone, has brought me to an even better (higher) level of faith.

Through the darkness of night came a beautiful sunrise!

:clap: :clap: :clap:

I have no words to express my thankfulness and love to God. :cry:
He is so perfect and good and loving.

What a beautiful thing to read, sis :swoon:

It's extraordinary how He does that, isn't it? He really really never abandons us. We hit rock bottom and feel like we're stumbling around in the dark and He lifts us out and pours a triple dose of faith and love into us :clap:

He's amazing :D How blessed we are to be in a relationship with Him! :clap: :clap: Just think, sweetie, He was with you the whole time covering you in kisses and holding you in His arms :D

With the family, hubby is better. He does love God.
He does say he will not get involved with any church though.
I have re-verted back to my Catholic faith. But in past we have attended a Baptist Church and were even re-baptised there.
He doesn't want anything to do with any formal Church, meaning someone tell him what to believe.

I just want him first and foremost to embrace God, which he does to a good degree. But not as much as he should. Not trying to judge him, but I just see what I see.
:)

And my kids are all teens come this Sunday. they will be 13-17. LOL. :hug:

Oh I cry with happiness. Praising God in and for everything!!!!
:bow:

You are so dear :hug: :hug: :hug:
