  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Ok...I have 2 prayer requests, and both of them are kinda sorta...well...not the best...

1) I have this friend at my school...and she, well, told me the other day that her parents hit her and make her pay to eat, IN HER OWN HOME! This disturbed me, but I'll talk to my school counselor about it, but please, pray that I have the strength to go through with telling someone, because she doesn't want me to. And pray for her, that she can get help and get into a home that won't be abussive.

2) I have this friend (sound familiar?) who has a terminal brain tumor, JacqueB, another member on CF, knows her too. She's only 15 and they're expecting she only has 2 years left of her life. She's too young to die, and its not fair, but God must have his reasons. Please pray for her so she'll have the strength to make it through the treatments that are meant to prolong her life, but they make her so sick as she has to go through with them. At the moment, her treatment is only radiation, so since its a brain tumor, it will only cause her to lose her hair, but she may have to go through chemo later, and I know that chemo has bad side effects. Please pray for her!

thanks bunches!

Heavenly Father, I pray for the friend of Newsies_Angel_89. I wonder why she is being ill-treated by her parents. Bless her and help her to make the necessary adjustments in her life, so that her parents may treat her better.  If her parents are at fault, change their attitude so that they may treat their own daughter properly and decently. Help her and her parents to seek you diligently and get saved.  

I pray also for the other friend of Newsies... that you may heal her  from terminal brain tumor. Though she is supposed to live for a limited period, we believe, Father, that all things are possible to you. You touch and heal this girl miraculously and completely so that she may live long to glorify you.  Bless the doctors, nurses etc. who treat her. Also, bless her loved ones with hope, fortitude and patience. Help her to bear the pains of the severely painful treatments she is to get.Give her the assurance and peace of salvation. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

(1Jo 5:14)  And this is the confidence that we have

in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his

will, he heareth us:

(1Jo 5:15)  And if we know that he hear us,

whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the

petitions that we desired of him. 

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews 4:16

 

(2Ch 16:9)  For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro

throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in

the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him...

I've seen the bruises, she's scared her parents will hurt her more if she tells!! Its bad, @ school today she had a broken arm and black eye, she refused to pay for her dinner. She was in tears during math and english, don't go there! I'm not trying to me mean or get angry, but seriously, I believe her and you don't know her! This is just what I know, ok? :sigh:  sorry, just had to say that...

thanks for all the prayers guys! it helps lots and I think everything will get better!
