• 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.

Help me with my prayers, guys!

So i am a believer that prayer needs never be wordy. God already knows what we are going to ask Him.
That said, I have what I like to refer to as a "mental prayer list" which consists of every salvation prayer, every personal need, every request for the people i love, and basically all the information that would be very hard to remember of my own power and even harder to list individually every time I prayed to God. But HE knows everything thats on there. and thats what i count on.
I need help, though.
Prayer, I have found, is very effective in numbers.
So I have a unique request.
can you guys pray for God to grant the things on my "mental prayer list" if He is willing?
Thank you!

I still love St Therese of Lisieux's answer to that question when asked why we should pray when God already knows everything. She said of course He knows what you will say but He pretends He doesn't know because He is your dad and loves hearing from you. awwww

so sweet, so profound in her simplicity


That said many Saints consider mental prayer the absolute highest form and of course I will pray for you.

God bless.

Before I pray for individuals here I always say a prayer for everyone here that includes "Please bless their prayers with success and/or give them better prayers to pray which you bless with success, for all their lives."

So, I hope I've already prayed as you wish.
