• 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.

What's on your mind?

If you want to be loved stop thinking about yourself.

What you want. What you need. What you lack. What you crave. How they can help. How you're bettered by their presence.

Me. Me. Me.

Start loving others instead. Without expectation or demands. Love them because they're worthy. They inspire you to love. To give. To share. Without reciprocity.

Not from the void. Or the lonely place beside you. Or the hole in your life you want to fill.

Let their presence be enough and all. Then you encounter love and draw the same.

It hurts to swallow, and when it doesn't hurt, it's still uncomfortable.

I put in an order at the pharmacy and will pick it up soon. Pedialyte freezer pops, coconut water, macaroni and cheese. Weird, but they should help me.

I hope you feel better soon. I'm glad the procedure went well. I pray for a speedy recovery and restoration of your health. :)

Lately I have been having trouble figuring out how to spend my day. There isn’t enough to do. =[ :(

Good thing is that we can cast our troubles upon Him. Reading Psalms is a great way to overcome boredom. Maybe “trouble” the Lord with your praises until He gives you some new thing to do. ;) Let Him figure it out for you.

Read Luke 18:1-8

“yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’ ”

Why are you drawn to the south and NOLA?

Well, if I knew this...I'd probably just try to find it any ole place.

I know there's a story there and it goes way back.

... something about a Spanish knight and an African princess...

Prayers sent. :pray: May the Lord do the bidding. It's all His.
thank you.

With some effort, I was able to get a good offer. I test drove the car I want, and the seller agreed to come down in price a little. Now I am waiting to hear back from the bank of they will approve the loan. If they do, my monthly payment will go up-- but-- I will have enough leftover from selling my current car-- that I will be able to pay off almost all my credit cards, which will actually lower my bills in total, and give me not only a newer vehicle, but more money per month.

Just waiting on word from the bank. The suspense is pretty strong. :dead:

I hope you do. :)


Who knows, maybe I'll meander over to Virginia.

I keep seeing license plates that say "Virginia is for lovers"

Anybody know why that is?

Still praying for you on this, man.

Wait, what? ... Oh, you said Spanish knight and African princess, not Northern Longblade knight and Kalinkan princess. For a second there I thought you were saying there was a legend going around about myself and the imaginary love of my life, that I didn't even know existed. ^_^
