  • 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.

I had a conversation with a coworker about how my voice sounds at work an t honestly rubbed me the wrong way. I've been told that my customer service voice sounds like a Disney princess but honestly i take it as an insult. The more irritated i actually am the more try to hide it and thus sound fake or as a man the other day said" anyone ever tell you you have the voice of a child?" I feel like the more i try to be a better person it just explodes in my face and i end up looking or feeling ridiculous. I've been really depressed lately and anxious but I'm constantly surrounded by non Christians so i feel like i have to hide it but then they think I'm cheerful as can be and that makes me more depressed. Anyone can relate? Please pray for me.

Never hide who you are, be yourself! it is hard to be a christian on a sea of unbelievers, I know the feeling. but you must remain true.

Remember that Jesus said mat 28:20;

teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” Amen.

You are not alone, shine your light to the world, do not hide it!

Blessings

I’m really sorry you’re going through this at your workplace. I can definitely relate to the feelings that come with being surrounded by nonbelievers. It is very lonely and depressing and it must be difficult feeling criticized about your voice when it’s such a main part of doing your job. There are so many opinions out there and if a couple people think you sound this way or that way, others may think you have a beautiful and unique voice. Praying for your peace :praying:
