  • 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 wrote the following during a time that I experienced emotional healing from our heavenly Father, taking away all my pain, the sting of memories that remained in my mind and heart. It is overwhelming to experience the love of God in our lives. I am sure there is much hurt in this broken world, that we have experienced, are experiencing and will experience, but He is there in our time of need.

========================================

We all might have within hidden fears,
And memories which cause the flow of unwanted tears,
Wounds in our hearts that have remained for many years,
Stained in our memories, cries within which no one hears,
But all fades away as the Lord draws near,
With His presence declaring your cries He hears,
Begins to wipe away every single tear,
Taking your heart into His hands and with His love begins to heal.

==================================

"My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." - Psalm 73:26
