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.

Hello everyone,

It's wet and windy here. I left hubby to the airport this morning and have just been pottering around the house since then. My son came home early from work because they had a brief power cut.

Today is polling day in Northern Ireland - we're voting in a new government here, because the old one was dissolved. Hubby and daughter will miss it, one son is going with neighbours and James and I will go this evening after a Life Explored course I hope to get to. It's being run in connection with the Festival of Hope outreach in our town.

Blessings,

Gillian

Sounds about the same as here in the foothills of the Pennines. We have had brief glimpses of blue sky and sun, which was lovely.

I pray for a new government for Northern Ireland, directed by the Lord, to bring peace and stability, in the name of our Lord Jesus

"The LAST DAY for discounted Lifetime Membership of CF"

I would have extended my membership over a year ago
if I hadn't tried so very-hard, to keep, the car and everything else going
on my single-income.... Eight months, I managed (at cost to other things)

But last August 30th, the MOT test revealed £250 worth of repairs needing-doing
followed by £97 car tax[six months]
and £107 per-month 'car insurance'
all was in-vain

Now, the cold weather has had me use more gas than would have liked

and I have-to catch-up some £140 outstanding-amount
while paying-for, present needs (gas usage)
I can tell that it is going to take me some-time to find 'par' with everything

Brother Dave,

I will be praying that God provides for all of your needs.


Thank you Tom Bro'


John 15:1-17 ESV
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.
Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away,
and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
I am the vine; you are the branches.
Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit,
for apart from me you can do nothing. ...

Hello everyone. Haven't been here in quite a while. I have had to slow down a bit and now have a little more time on my hands due to a small stroke. I'm really looking forward to the warmer weather.
Blessings to you all,

Ley

I am still having tests but it wasn't a tia apparently. I don't seem to tick all the boxes so they are treating it as a small stroke . I still have the headache, dizziness, balance problems and right sided weakness :(
