• 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.

The daily thread.

:heart: Amen, i can relate. I'm thankful that God raises beauty from ashes, in the most unlikeliest of ways, and that HE is in charge and i am not. His inexplicable timing and sovereignty is something i will be forever thankful for, because His sovereignty reigned instead of what i thought should've happened. Thank GOD He over-rode my limited perspective.

I'm THANKFUL that you are HERE, brother. God has a REASON for that. Praise Him that HE is BIGGER than either of us, and ALL of us.

Keep shining my friend. You bless waaaay more dear souls than you may realize.

Keep on keepin' on. (((hug)))
Thank you brinny, its nice to be loved. Thank you. :)

The one good thing about feeling rejected, forsaken, and hurt by others, is that God knows exactly how that feels. All His prophets were rejected, and the Lord Himself, the chief apostle, was utterly rejected and forsaken. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Blessed are those who mourn, they will be comforted. Woe unto you when all men speak good of you. Sometimes you gotta encourage yourself in the Word.
