  • 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.

A rather interesting but important prayer request.

Hi, I know that this is going to sound like a rather odd prayer and please do not judge me for it but this is an important prayer request.

See, I am 31 single. That being said I have the freedom to more focus on God. Do His will and carry on with His plan for me.
As noted in my journal entries that my boss sometimes gets on my nerves but I know why The Lord has brought me to this job. To bring happiness and my sensitivity to others to the work place.;)
I am single never married with no kids, getting married was my dream most of my life. But I know that The Lord has a very good plan for me. He has blessed me with such a caring roommate who understands me.:)
My mother is a drunk, but The Lord has me go over and visit with my mom and dad to let Jesus shine through.:amen:
Basically, I believe that everything that happens, happens for a very good purpose for The Lord.
But for the life of me, I can NOT understand why on earth that I have this little crush on actor Tom Cavanagh. What purpose is this little crush for? It is rather frustrating and embarrassing having this little crush Tom Cavanagh, knowing that I can not stand his personality what so ever. In my eyes I think that Tom is shallow. The reason he picks out women who are opposite of what I represent, you know he picks out the fake looking women who snub people like me (his wife now is very fake looking). Tom also tries ever so hard to fit in with society by cussing, taking God’s name in vein, changing his hair more than any guy that I have ever liked the list is endless!
What I ask of you is could you PLEASE pray for The Lord to reveal to me what purpose that this little crush on this guy (Tom) will serve. If The Lord has NO purpose for this little crush then to PLEASE ask The Lord to "turn off" this little crush.
Come on it is rediculous, I am 31 and need not to have these little crushs. I would more understand why if Tom Cavanagh was a true Christian. Because he could be more or less a role model in the sense of the way he would follow Christ, I hope that makes sense:scratch:
Again please do not laugh at me for this request, just pray!! Please remember that I am sensitive!!!!

God Bless you all!!:wave:

Father, glory be to Your name forever and ever. Lord, be with your daughter on this day and age, so that she may shine in dark places, and let Yourself shine through her. Lord, lead people to her so that she may teach them more about You, and use her for Your good purpose. Father, she's in a confusing situation, and we all get in them at times. Lord, that You will guide her in Your light, and teach her the ways. Lord, send someone out there for her, if that is Your will. Lord, this crush on Tom Cavanagh is jsut something very small, Lord. Father, that You may give her peace of mind and a pure heart. In Jesus' Name, Amen. :prayer:

Heh.. I know how you feel. I have a crush on this actor on this show called "Radio Free Roscoe" and... hahaha it's ridiculous really, but I love it. :blush:

Father no request is silly or to simple for your ears. Father you have read this request your child has put forth. Being human we have many things the attche themselves to us, as you well know and understand this Father. Father may you help this child to discern your spirit to know the truth about her request. Father we all long for love, which I pray this child will embrace you more and more in Jesus name. Ament

One 4 Christ, consider this--

Maybe your obsession started with a hint from the Holy Spirit that TC needs prayer. Continual prompting might be that God knows you are the one that will pray for him. I sometimes twist these prompts into fatalistic conclusions, and am trying to recognize them for what they are.

A couple years ago, God kept prompting me to pray for Michael Jackson (no obsession there) and I knew he'd had contact with some Christians over the years, so assumed that he was at a point of needing support. Now I know what he needed prayer for!

I think it's safe to turn the natural attraction back to praying for Tom. Ask the Holy Spirit for strength in this--love, joy peace patience...self control--that's what He's there for.
