  • 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.

Jill,

I will definately put it on my prayer list.

Thank you...:)

How is your sister handling this? Is she willing to take advice? I agree with Wayne, I'm going to pray she will stop enabling him. It would be great is she would read boundries or watch the videos by Dr. Cloud.

One day, or hour, at a time. She's a little better each day, but I know she's worried about him. She wants him to figure this out, or call his father and move in with him. It's about time he steps up to the plate.

May the Lord bless you, your sister and your mother with peace, strength and grace to take you through this trail.

Thanks sweetie!

We saw my Dad for about an hour. He was just sedated and didn't move, but he was peaceful at least. They want to make sure he doesn't get pneumonia. He had a slight fever, but they brought it down. He'll probably be in this state for a few more days until they can be sure about his esophagus not being swollen.

There are just so many complications that can come out of this. Thanks again for all your prayers. God bless! :thumbsup:

I am so empty spiritually I am burning metal here! This past month here has been one of the hardest times of my life (in fact short of the death of my son, it is probably the hardest time!) and I know God has plans and I truly cannot wait to hear what He has in store!
I'm sorry to hear this Pete. Know that I am praying for you.

I do admire your attitude. You are 100% correct, God does have great things in store for you. When I'm going through a rough time I tend to lose sight of that, so I'm really glad you haven't.

She had a lot of guilt over the divorce, even though it was not her fault.
Dr. Phil says that "parenthood should be a guilt-free zone." He's right. At the same time, I realize it's easier to look at someone else's situation and know what should be done, than to be in that situation and follow the advice.

Definitely praying.

... I haven't been to the gun range for awhile. I could have used some target practice. :p
Be careful when you decide to pull! You never want to pull it out too soon!!



:swoon:



P.S. I'll doubt I'll ever change . . . :sigh:

Be careful...
Um... um... uh... I....... okay, for the second time this year, I'm speechless! Thanks for the warning... I think? ^_^

That's how I got my third kid. :eek:
Yeah, but I bet you're glad now you had her.

I think people are starting to get used to me. I hope . . . ?
Well, I guess it's technically possible. After all, we did put men on the moon. :D

Ain't that the truth!

That's cute!

How many of us are on Facebook?
Not me. Is that similar to MySpace? Is it picture-oriented?

So are y'all saying we have to be on Facebook to see the reclusive Jenniewren? :)

I've never been on MySpace. If you go to www.facebook.com youcan check it out but watch out you'll get addicted!

Its a page that connects people who know each other...high school, work, church, etc. Its not cyber based like forums are. Usually everyone has met at one time or another...I say usually because I have cyber friends on there too :)

It's funny . . . I can do all this hard stuff (I've designed and developed several websites completely from scratch, and I have many more that I update on a regular basis), yet the Facebook thing is very confusing to me. Go figure!!:scratch:

Search[/URL]. I personally cannot guarantee it's complete accuracy though

Thanks cristianna... actually, the boys know how to reach their father. But my sister doesn't have his info and isn't comfortable asking the boys for it right now. Although on Friday she was telling me that she's going to ask her son to contact his father and see if he can live with them for a few months. His father hates to part with any money and his wife does not have a good relationship with either of the boys.

I think they are going to take my Dad off the ventilator today. Please pray he will breathe independently and not have to go back on it. :prayer:

Hi everyone,

Praying Jill xx

It is good to have you back Kay and Erica
Pete, I agree, Those of us in UY relationships know exactly the difficulties and problems CF is letting itself in for.
Pepper, I am not that exclusive lol. I have attempted to upload pictures from my computer or photbucket only to be logged out of CF when I try to post them. Obviously it has been decided my face is to scary to be seen in public.
Love to all xxxx
