  • 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

Fasting has been on my mind a lot lately. I have some prayers I'd really like to see answered and think this may be a key to it. I'm just looking for input from anyone who has experience with it. Have any of you had breakthrough with prayer or received an answer by fasting, and what is your general opinion of it? Thanks for the help

Thanks everyone. I'm in good health and it's really been on my mind a lot lately, so I think i'll give it a chance when I can. It's just hard right now because i'm on the track team at my college and I don't think I would survive the practices if I went without food for any length of time.

The story of my fast is so lengthy that I will simply leave you with some advice as to what helped me. I'm hypoglcemic, so along with regular drinking water I would occassionally mix a powder with water called "Emer'gen-C". It balances your electrolytes, and gives you vitamins and minerals. It may seem like "cheating", but I wasn't any less penitent. I went for 5 days, and without it, I wouldn't have made it to day 2, or even had the wits about me to concentrate in prayer, and my prayers were anwsered.
I will pray for you!
