  • 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.

Feeling sad

Thank you all for your prayers in my previous post. I am still feeling a bit fearful and am struggling to feel peace from God.

At times I feel overwhelmed with sadness that I ever had this relationship in the first place because I know that it has not always been good for my son. I feel guilty that I didn't put his needs first and worry that it has left him with lasting damage. I am finding it hard to forgive myself for doing something that has hurt him. I am also finding it difficult to let go of my anger towards my ex-partner for their part in this situation. :(

At really low points, I have begged God to take me back in time to the point just before I entered this relationship, so that I could choose a better path and have the time when my son was little all over again - a precious time which has now gone forever and which was marred by conflict with my ex-partner, creating at times a sense of underlying unhappiness and lack of security in our homelife. I know that God will not take me back in time but I sometimes find myself clinging to this hope.

Would you please continue to pray for me....

Heavenly Father, bless my sister and see her through this difficult time. Let her feel Your presence and love in her life. Let her know that You're right there beside her seeing her through day to day. Fill her mind and heart with Your truth. Draw her to You and keep her close. Let her mind be put to ease that You have control of this situation. In Jesus' holy name I pray. Amen.

O Lord, our sister is filled with regret, with guilt. The enemy is against her, letting her not release the past, but has her clinging to it. Lord, let this evil one flee, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, send this beast back to the depths in which he came. Cast him away from Your Child, along with all the troubles all the guilt he brings. Father, let our sister be filled with Your Truth this day, let her heart be renewed in Your Spirit, in Your Ways. Father, let her move away from the past, wiser that she was before, let her put behind her all the problems, all the anger, the bitterness and resentment, for they are not Your Will, but the will of the evil one. Give to her forgivness O Father, let her see through Your eyes, the eyes of love and mercy, grace and compassion. Free her from these thoughts, let her mind be the 'mind of Christ' moving towards the future.In the Mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen

Father God, I pray and ask of You to replace this woman's sadness with Your joy. Help her to feel of thy love, and help her to forgive herself because You have forgiven her. Restore her life, and all that she feels she missed with her son. Restore her hope and her future, In Jesus Name, Amen
