  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

If there is anyone out there struggling with their faith maybe this will help you.

Every year I like to mail Christmas cards to all of our shut-ins and elderly church members who are not able to attend services.  The list usually has quite a few people on it.

Well this year I got the list but only had a VERY small amount of money to buy groceries and gas for my car for the entire week (we're talking less than $15.00).

I felt so bad.  I know alot of people who hate sending out cards but I really love to do it.  I always prayed over each card as I made it out that in some small way it would bless the person who was to receive it.

I prayed about it, I told God how much I longed to send those cards out and how bad I felt about not being able to.  The next day as my husband was getting out of the car, there at his feet was a whole roll of stamps!

It may not seem like much to alot of people, but to me it was the Miracle of the Stamps!  I have been having some spiritual battles lately and walked through some very deep valleys and really needed to draw on God and it was as if God were telling me that He is mindful of the smallest details in our lives.  And if he takes such notice of the little things then surely He knows all about the big things! :D 

No matter what you are going through, draw closer to God, He really does care :pray: .

Thanks for this post, and I can tell you it has blessed me and I just know it will bless others as well.

Like you I am always as thruilled with the "little" miracles God does as much perhaps as the "big"ones. For it does ondeed show to us in a very special way how concerned God is with even the smallest of details. I know that we are told that even the hairs on our head are numbered, but these little things seem to bring that to light in a real and positive way.

May He continue to bless you as you bless others. Is Jesus SWEET or what!?!

What a wonderful post! Thanks for sharing with us. God indeed is good. Our pastor lately has been speaking on how God really knows exactly what we need just at the very moment we need it. And your story certainly goes to prove that. I have always liked the scripture that tells us He is even mindful of the sparrow. So if he is concerned about sparrows, I know he will provide for me.
