• 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.

Wow I'll definitely be praying. I think you guys made the right decision to put things on hold for awhile until he gets his mind right. Having depression is one thing, but crushing, suicidal thoughts really isn't healthy.

I am sending up my prayers for him and for you. It isn't easy to be a support person for someone who has this chronic disease. I suffer from it myself and withdraw from the people I care about as to not be a burden to them no matter how many times they tell me that I'm not one. I hope you can let him know you are there for him while giving him the space he needs to treat his symptoms and give his best to you when he is able.

God bless both of you.

Stefnee, I will pray for you and Joseph. I will pray for wisdom. 20 years ago, I could say the same things that you did. It was painful to be seperated from my then boyfriend. He is now my husband and though then he dealt with some bad lows, it was nothing like the clinical depression he experiences now. It is a hard road to walk for all of us. Him, me and our children. He has some physical disabilities which contribute to the depression so he cannot work. I am doing it all, and it is excruciatingly hard. Tell you what, I'll pray for you, and you can pray for me.
