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

This day is a day I wish to forget
Forget because I feel so depressed that I am terrified of forgetting you.

I can't explain what it is that I feel
It's too dark to consider
I just feel
So small, so fragile, so ... insignificant.

Yet you are the same God whose judgement is always to have mercy.
Show me that you care.



Lord - you have hear by sister's cry. Let her know that you are near.

Times like this are often times of spiritual growth.
He is closer than you feel (always), He hears you,and loves you.
YOU MATTER!!!! :hug:
Hold fast to faith, and trust in His power, which is greatest when you feel weakest.
Sustain yourself through prayer, Scripture, and spiritual reading.
All is allowed for our greater good.
He is with you always, and we are with you in spirit.
Be not afraid; this too shall pass.
Our prayers are with you. :prayer:

Praying for you! For some reason the song I learned as a child came to mind! Maybe you remember it or learned it! It went like this:
Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong, we are weak but He is strong!
That was part of it. Helps to remember that in times of need! We sang it with all our hearts when we were young children. Maybe we should still sing it!
Listen to what Little Flower is saying above in her post to you! That is very good advice and much comfort!

God cares about all the birds in the sky enough to keep them fed. How much more do you think He cares for you? His love for you is unmeasurable. Sometimes we go through these times to bring us closer to God. Just read the book of Job. God promises that He will NEVER leave us. I am giving you homework. Open up your bible and read Psalm 6 a few times then turn it to Psalm 40 and read it a few times. May God speak to your heart as you read!

Father God, have mercy and bring Ivy through the dark times, the troubled times, the sad times where she feels forsaken. Reveal Yourself to her, show her that You are near and like the poem in footprints show her that she is not alone You are with her carrying her, In Jesus Name, Amen
