• 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.

There is a God who loves us in the midst of all the "hurry up" and "hateful" attitudes that so often bombard us in our daily lives.

Also I am grateful that God loves us in spite of our own shortcomings.

:amen: Peace with God and the peace of God working in and through us is worth more than anything I can think of. And, He will never leave or forsake us. Thank you Lord.

That my friend is what He said. All we have to do is believe it.

Being 'blessed'

Those who do not /cannot 'believe',
truly experience, 'a great deal of difficulty' ~containing 'peace' in their hearts
Recognizing, that there is little [or nothing] that one can do, to provide peace for-ourselves,
other-than, 'to-surrender', to His will in all-things, which stimulates and encourages, the growth of faith, in our Lord

Remembering, the paths we have travelled ~to arrive at 'today'
we are then, enabled, to recall 'the exact moment' that we became enlightened [to truth]
~when difficult matters, became 'easier' and catastrophes, were 'lessons' that we could survive[?] ~for a reason [LOVE]

We are 'nothing' without Him in our lives


To Him goes the praise and the glory :amen:
