  • 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.

Paul says that it is not a good idea to go looking for marriage but to seek God and if you are led to your mate, great but keep God first.
Don't look for guys to be your boyfriend or to be in a "relationship" with. Sure... go to church or youth group and hang out but don't go for guys. Go for God. The Guys who aren't going for girls and are going for God are the ones you are looking for and they will be attracted to the girls who are going for God and not guys.
Make sense? Go for God, get from God. Go for guys... heh what you get from guys isn't as great as what you get from God... especially if you met me where you are (I'm not there) I am nice and all and I go for God not girls but God is still the King when it comes to giving gifts.

You want my honest answer? Stop looking. It sounds like you're looking for a rebound relationship.
I agree with SDSUMarcus01...

"Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all things will be given to you as well" Matthew 6:33 (NIV)

I had been all by myself for the past one year and eight months, yet, I do not regret this. I had been too far away from God when I was in an ungodly relationship. Before I want to get someone, I want to seek God's Kingdom first and walk in the Light Of Jesus because I know that God had prepare the best person for me.

To be frank with you, stop looking and seek God's Kingdom first and you'll find the person you desire. All Christians want a good Christian guy to be their life partner and when you are in a relationship, it's very important to be in relationship with a good purpose not just because you want to have someone in your life.

Here I am!!! Problem is, I have to find a nice Christian girl. It isn't really happening yet. Heh, my summer was like a soap opera. :scratch:

You and me both :) This entire year has been nothing short of a season on Days of Our Lives for me. Too bad we don't get to sign autographs, huh? :p

I agree with most of the post here, but especially this one. I wouldn't recommend looking for a boyfriend at this point. If you want to just meet some good Christian people, church, Christian groups at school, possibly other church's youth groups if yours is small or non-existant. Actually, I've had a really hard time with this myself. I have come to realize that it is just an other way God is trying to get me to learn to trust him, because he has recently sent me some great friends completely out of the blue, and when I get impatient and try to force things myself, nothing happens.

Reading that back, it sounds like a lecture. Sorry. :sorry:

I do know a lot of nice, good, Christian boys here in SoCal, but most of them are like me: we aren't interested in having a girlfriend just to have a girlfriend. We are waiting (maybe impatiently, but we're waiting :D ) until we know it's God's leading. What a dull crowd we are. :D :cool:

BTW, way to go sticking to your principles like that and not giving in to that guy.

True advice from my father:

"Don't fall in love until you can do something about it."

Excellent advice. :thumbsup:

Although on second thought, your father probably meant getting married. In today's world, "doing somthing about it" could be interpreted as much less. What a sad state of affairs. :sigh:

You will soon find that men, even Christian men, aren't going to fill up that empty space. You need to fill it with the Lord, and if He sees that it will honor Him, he will send you a Christian man. Seek Him first, and you will be given the Kingdom of God.
