• 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

Dear Beloved

Dear beloved,
I am yours, you are mine
Today, and tomorrow the same
Trusting God in all ways
Loving Him through all of our days
We will stick together
We will be together forever
Down this path, He will lead
For it's Him who planted this seed
May it grow inside us
Watered by Jesus
The vows we made at the altar
Lord, I pray they'll never falter
To bring You glory all of our days
To bring You all of the honor and praise
We belong to the Lord
In this life we'll never be bored
For He will meet every need
And we will follow His lead
This love has been made perfectly
And will lead us to eternity
I will love you for the rest of my life
Dear beloved,
For I am yours
And you are mine.

This one was written out of my romantic side, hehe, but also about my parents relationship. They divorced last year in March, announced it to the family in May. I wrote this to portray what I thought marriage should be, and what I hope it will be. :)

If I may,- and I believe I should seeing as how people so much more readily offer their own works rather than their opinions here- I have a small suggestion. You might want to try dividing up paragraphs. Though it is by no means long-winded, the length and format did make me want to say it all in one breath. Would you mind if I tinkered with the wording some?
As for your parent's situation, I can relate and you have my empathy in that. I just realized that it was ten years ago when it happened and my father has since remarried, but some wounds never really close.

Go with God.







I am aware,

That would sound better in paragraphs, huh? :) Thank you for the suggestions- I always like constructive criticism! :)

Sure- tinker away! :)

Likewise, you also have my empathy for your situation. Although, I cannot say I know how you feel, because every situation is different, and people have varying thresholds of pain. Wounds like that take time- God's time- to heal. I know sometimes we wish they would heal faster, but without suffering, there cannot be compassion. That's what I've learned, at least. :)
