  • 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

Two questions: 1.) Do you ever cherry pick scripture? I mean, do you ever want to hear a word from God and randomly open the Bible up and read the first pieces of text that your eyes fall on?

2.) If I were to open your life book open to a week ago in time, what would be the first sentence I would read?

I cannot believe I never came back here and checked out the replies! Ack. I am so sorry, everyone!

Two questions: 1.) Do you ever cherry pick scripture? I mean, do you ever want to hear a word from God and randomly open the Bible up and read the first pieces of text that your eyes fall on?

I have never done that before. If I am going to read my Bible -- which of course I do, everyday -- I want to read it in full text, not open it and let my eyes randomly fall on the first text that I see. I like to observe and absorb the Word, and get to know my Loving God.

2.) If I were to open your life book open to a week ago in time, what would be the first sentence I would read?

"Once upon a time there was a clumsy girl" -- I can't tell you how many times I have run into a wall or tripped over a pebble. True story.

How did you become a christian?

Growing up, I lived in a semi Christian home. Meaning, my mother was a believer and a born again Christian, but my father was not. My mother practically raised and taught me, and was the one who led me to the Lord. I was fourteen at the time. Lately I had felt a tugging at my heart and my mind was frequently saying, I need to accept Christ. I knew this was coming from the Lord, and I was ready to accept Christ as my Lord and Savior, and so I did. :)

What kind of things you want to give thank to God the most recently?

For His love and patience with me. It has been a rough year for me with a harsh season, but He never once left me. He has been patient, loving, and ever so the Father to guide me where He wants me. I am so grateful for that.

Probably Colorado! I hear it is beautiful and it was where a close friend lived when she was alive, so I always wanted to go and see the state.

What's your favorite book, movie or TV show quote?

My favorite book is Lord of the Rings. J.R.R Tolkien is my favorite author. :)

I am a terrible person for not answering these. >.< I apologize, everyone!

Do you enjoy art ?

I love art! I wish I could draw or paint myself, but I am absolutely horrid at it. Stick figures, however... :D

Who's your favorite character?

I am going to saaaaaaay...Glorfindel, from J.R.R Tolkien's works.

What's God done in your life lately?

A lot! He has taught me patience and to slow down, and what to do in silence. He has especially shown me that if I just trust Him, and not worry over the small things, that He will guide me and provide.
