• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

Anyone feel out of control here? I feel like I am having a mid life crisis a bit early and want to change loads of things around me. I just feel a bit out of control at this point in my life. I know God is working in all of this but things keep on moving and I feel like I am being left behind and like I should change things so I can regain some control in my life.

Is that silly? Anyone else feel like this?

The irony brother is that in order to attain Godly joy and peace, we need to continue the process of relinquishing control ... not regaining it.

Stick with us and we'll help you through this, cool? :hug: :prayer:

Also, I urge you to sign in to the "Men of God" thread on a daily basis for support but more importantly, to establish a daily covenant with God despite the transgressions in our past.

"Jesus came to redeem us of our past not to reject us because of it."

This is not at all silly. I've been feeling out of control for a long time now. I just try to take one day at a time and trust God through all this. Hang in there. You are not alone :hug:.

Just so you're aware, there's a "Women of God" thread as well. God Bless!! :)
