• 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.

My goals so far that I've thought of are:
Exercise - i make more specific goals in this - currently its just walking so many steps per day but i will eventually change it up.
Read 12 books this year - one per month.
Read bible more consistently and set aside more time in focused prayer.
Pay off student loan and work towards more financial independence.
Become more obedient (Matthew 22:37-40) and trusting fully in God in every situation and being content and hopeful in Christ.

That's all I can think of now off the top of my head but I may edit this later.

I will share a verse that came to mind as I was writing this and thinking about some goals/wishes for 2016. :)

"Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths." - proverbs 3:5-6
