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.

~Clears throat and points to previous posts~ Apparently you're not paying any attention to mine.

I missed it sorry...Gabby kisses Red on the cheek ...yes I'll share...you already know what I did you saw the results of it.
I know that is cryptic but it is not for the public to know if you want to know you know how to reach me.
Gabby hugs Red....love you sis.
Oh should I say Oh wise one *wink*

It is better not to vow than to make a vow and not fulfill it. Do not let your mouth lead you into
sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, "My vow was a mistake." Why should God be
angry with what you say and destroy the work of your hands? Much dreaming and many words
are meaningless. Therefore stand in awe of God.
Ecclesiastes 5:5-7
Have you ever had someone make a commitment and then back out at the last minute? I think we've all experienced this. But, the Lord is true to his word and expects the same of his children. If you can't fulfill your vow you shouldn't make it to begin with. A perfect example of this...a few years ago when I got out of a relationship...I made a vow to the Lord that I would never have intimate relations again until I was remarried. If that didn't happen then I would remain abstinent. I have upheld this vow and I have every intention of seeing it through. Why? Because I made a
promise to God and I intend to keep it. If I were to back out now, it would be stupid for me to expect him to not be angry. I would rather die than make my Father angry because I couldn't keep my promise. It is one thing to break a promise to man but, it is far more serious to break one made to the Lord. God tells us he will destroy the work of our hands if we go back on our word. Pretty serious stuff. Are there unfulfilled vows in your life? Marriage, business, or friendships? Vows not fulfilled in any of these areas may be the reason our work is being hindered. Perhaps this is why all of my relationships after my divorce have failed. I asked forgiveness but, that doesn't necessarily free me from correction. We can try to make them right so that we may be successful later on in order to do whatever God calls us to do.

I am with Rachel on this one sis...I hope you are talking about love relationships cause there are a lot of us here who are crazy about you Red, and me and the sis above are two of them.
Red you can't fail in your frienship with me ...cause I love you unconditionally remember that.
Gabby gives Red a *Big Warm Hug* I love you sweetie.

I wasn't referring to you all. ~Smacks forehead & grins~ If you go back and read that just a little more carefully you'll figure out that I'm talking about romantic relationships. Not friendships. ~Hugs~
Menno: Yes. Sorry about that. I shut down early last night to watch a movie and then went to bed.
