  • 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.

That's a good idea. We have many days when it's overcast and gloomy. My house gets the evening sun mostly with west facing windows. My livingroom faces north. I have a couple windows that have southern exposure. However, that room gets cold, so I generally keep it closed off.

Today's prayer :)

"A Prayer by Mother Teresa":

Dear Jesus, Help us to spread your fragrance everywhere we go, flood our souls with your Spirit and life. Penetrate and possess our whole being so utterly that our lives may only be a radiance of yours. Shine through us and be so in us that every soul we come in contact with may feel your presence in our soul. Let them look up and see no longer us but only Jesus. Stay with us and then we shall begin to shine as you shine, so to shine as to be light to others. The light, O Jesus, will be all from you. None of it will be ours. It will be your shining on others through us. Let us thus praise you in the way you love best by shining on those around us. Let us preach you without preaching not by words, but by our example by the catching force the sympathetic influence of what we do the evident fullness of the love our hearts bear to you. Amen.

Mother Teresa

Our neighbors yard across the street reeks skunk today; they got the worst of it, it seems.
The odor sifts up to us now and then on the breeze from the lake :sick:
We just reinforced the chicken wire around our porch and spread skunk deterrent around the borders of the house and yard.
It worked years ago, and should again this time :thumbsup:

I think those little creatures are so cute...too bad they do what they do...lol.

Do you have kids living at home still?

I'm one who lives for spring and reasonably hot summers because of more daylight hours and sunshine. Early fall isn't so bad. By early November, I'm ready for spring. I loved fall and winter as a youth; not so much anymore. I have that Seasonal Affective Disorder pretty badly.:sigh::sad:

Hello my dear friends,

It is late, but, I am not tired, I met the gentleman that was coming to town from over-seas, and all I can say is wow, he is awesome, such a true gentleman, so humble, and caring, we visited today for 11 hours and it only felt like 1, I took him around to some places in my area, he loved it, all we did was talk and laugh, I am in awe over him, I am sure glad I decided to meet him, I have never been happier.


Hugs
Susie

I spent all afternoon with hubby getting the banking accounts and credit cards in order yesterday...but it is done and we have active debit cards to use...one bank person said her hubby's ssn was stolen 12 years ago and the data base keeps good track of unusual activity...so that number is in the best place possible for this world's system...PTL.

I got very tired tho and had a great deal of emotional pressure...it went away, where ever that is.

Today we go to the DMV...I have an appt to get a replacement liscense...then we will look at TV sets.

I miss you all...will be on when I can.

Good morning to those in the morning....and all who aren't...:)

Hi Shirley ~ I miss you too and have been praying for you :hug:
I can understand your emotional pressure and fatigue; under the circumstances, it is still disturbing ....and tends to create an underlying anxiety as you work through it!
It will lessen as the days pass and you see that you are secure again.
Praying for your strength and peace in the process :pray:

Be blessed :crossrc:

"Give Your All To God":

34 And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
35 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it.
36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?
37 For what can a man give in return for his soul?
38 For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in
the glory of his Father with the holy angels.' (Mark 8 : 34-38 - ESV)

We're off to Memphis, TN tomorrow morning for our son's wedding. We're really looking forward to having a great time, and we pray that the kids have a beautiful wedding. We'll be back after labor day, so I'll be absent here for a few days.

In the meantime, all of you are in my prayers. SMILE - God loves you.
