  • 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?

I'm not in a good head space right now. Been having a lot of intrusive thoughts lately. There is a lot of anger I suppress. Sometimes I think some day I will have so much stress and negative emotions in me that my body will eventually give up on me and just shut down completely.

What if we got rid of money and gave all the money in the world as an offering to God? I think that would be a good idea. :)

Money is a big problem. Food grows for free and should be free. Homelessness continues to grow. :(

I'm just sad about the cost of living. I wish homelessness didn't exist.

I wish the world cared more about people that are homeless. :(

What can we do about homelessness? :( I want to help more.

You have a beautiful heart @VanillaLion. I agree with the cost of living. I wish homelessness didn't exist too. Jesus wants the same. The Lord has rescued me from homelessness and enabled me to provide for a couple of people. Please pray that He blesses me more so that I could rescue many others. I pray the same for you. May the Lord grant your desire. We can do this. Keep focusing and hoping in the Lord. We give Him our two fishes and five loaves, and He will feed the ten thousand. Let's ask the Lord to send out more workers into the fields to fight homelessness.

Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness. When He saw the crowds, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.” Matthew 9

Doxxing, Judas and the depths to which some people are willing to go to harm another. It's always better to rely on God.

And to think, as imperfect as all of Jesus' followers were from Peter to Mary Magdalene, who some say was a prostitute, Judas was the only one that was lost. I don't understand why modern christians have a hard time understanding this.

Thank you for sharing. Yes. It's always better to rely on God. Reminded me of this verse-

Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.

I'm not in a good head space right now. Been having a lot of intrusive thoughts lately. There is a lot of anger I suppress. Sometimes I think some day I will have so much stress and negative emotions in me that my body will eventually give up on me and just shut down completely.

I'm sorry, @MrMoe. I would give it to the Lord in worship. May the Spirit of the Lord overcome you even as you come before Him just as you are.

I'm sorry you're struggling. Try praying the following verses over the next week and see how you feel. Visualize your lungs. We expel the bad and inhale the good.

Expel: Psalms 51
Inhale: Psalms 112
Water: 1 Corinthians 13

So I can't believe how A simple compliment on someone's outfit can make their day. I was in Starbucks waiting for a pour over coffee and saw a woman in a nice pink dress with matching pink mask. I decided to compliment her. She said you just made my day. And of course she said have a good day. Later I was at Panera and waiting on my Mediterranean veggie. A woman behind the counter had a cute polka dot black and white mask and matching shirt. She looked like she was having a hard day and talking to a coworker. Once my food arrived I made sure to give her a compliment, and three to four other co-workers gave an awwww. She was definitely happy.

Women if you see someone else in a nice outfit, take the time to compliment them. I'm not sure how it would come off from a guy, but there's effort that is usually put into their outfits. And most all women like to hear that they look beautiful. It can really make their day.

Dreading a total media break tomorrow and Sunday. But also looking forward to it. It's a much needed retreat from distractions.

We'll miss ya, you know. My cat girl is leaving the house! :whyy:

I wonder if Miss @Isaiah 2:22 will ever be back?:mmh:


Also, @Multifavs , I don't really know why, but I have felt compelled to pray for you right now. I hope you are doing well, but I pray wherever you are at this time that you are at peace, and, if the Lord has a new path for you to walk, that He will assure you on the journey and keep trouble or paralyzing fear and/or doubts far from you in the process. *salutes*

That's a nice gesture. I do the same with store employees. They're usually ignored and small talk makes their day. I've had opportunities to minister to many at Starbucks. Frequenting the same place over the years builds connections.

I made sure I paid my cellphone bill just before sundown last night, so I didn't have to do any transactions on Shabbat. I woke up this morning and I have no service, and the provider is saying that my payment didn't go through.

Bye bye cellphone for a day. I whipped out the ole laptop and got on a free COX trial!

I definitely do need prayers right now. I had a very stressful and depressing week. Today and tomorrow might be better, but next week looks like it's going to be just as bad or worse. I sure hope it gets better. :(

I don't think so. I think she was just here to get advice with that crush she had, and once she got what she was looking for, she left.

I remember she had spoken of something like that a time or two, but surely that wasn't all the reason she was here with us? I remember her being pretty active here for at least two months, towards the beginning of the year, maybe even last year? Well, in any event, she will be missed. :(

Here is a hug of hopeful reassurance from your brother knight.

I pray that it will only get better for you from here, my friend and sister. Or if not, for whatever reason that must be, that the Lord will wipe away your tears and carry you through, with a sense of trust - that eventually everything will be all right, at least - persevering within you.:angel:
