  • 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.

sometimes when you are down...... it is because you need to look up..... at the highest point in the universe....... on the cross
The moment we take our eyes off of Christ and put them on ourselves and our circumstances we are bound to get depressed.

if our identity is firmly planted on earth..... we will be dragged down to it when the earth shakes..... if it is planted in heaven we will soar above the turmoil that tries to shake us

Be Still and Know

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is holy
Be still, O restless soul of mine
Bow before the Prince of peace
Let the noise and clamor cease
Be still

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is faithful
Consider all that he has done
Stand in awe and be amazed
And know that He will never change
Be still

Be Still, and know that He is God
Be Still, and know that He is God
Be Still, and know that He is God

Be Still; Be speechless

Be still and know that he is God
Be still and know he is our Father
Come rest your head upon his breast
Listen to the rhythm of his unfailing heart of love
Beating for His little ones
Calling each of us to come
Be still, Be still

I got an email from Casting Crowns inviting me to sign up to win two tickets to the GMA Dove Awards the end of this month, but I'm not going to because I wouldn't have a chance of winning.
my mom used to sign up for all sorts of things and on rare occasions won. I have won a thing or two but rarely sign up mainly for one reason..... spam. If you sign up for things they want your info to sell to some other folks to later spam you with junk. give them a phone number and you will mysteriously later get calls..... an email address will be flooded with garbage.
