• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

I have been under a lot of stress the last few months and I just can't take much -- more of it.

If anyone here has any encouragement in the form of Bible Verses please share so I have something to keep going.

With this stress it's taken a serious toll on my marriage as well so ... keep us in

Phil 4:19 And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Phil 4:13 " I can do all things through Him who strengthens me."

Phil 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! 5 Let your gentle spirit be known to all people. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and pleading with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

MT 12:20 A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out, till he has brought justice through to victory.

You might be down but you are not out. Cast your cares, and look for restoration and healing balm for every hurt and need. Inside of you is Christ, built on his foundation, laid with the hearts, prayers and teachings of others. You are not alone and God never gives what you can't handle. Still be careful not to try to do much in your flesh, or things that you are not led to do. That will lead to burn out. Love yourself too as if you can't do that you can't love others so much either. If that means taking a day off for you, it is OK. Jesus often retreated away from the crowds. God bless!
