  • 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

I have nobody in my life. I don't have any family at all. I have no friends. Due to health and other issues I have been homebound quite a bit. I am depressed and wondering why I am even alive.

I had met someone and had thought we would have a beautiful future and was going to be part of her family but it's over between us as of a few days ago. I was going to fly out to be with them for Christmas but now I'm wrapping gifts for them and I'm not even going to be with them for Christmas. I'll be in my apartment alone. I finally started to dream again. Dream of a future.

I just want to sleep it all away but I can't even sleep. I feel like this is a huge nightmare that I can't wake up from. I've never felt sadness like this. I miss her every second. I dream of her. When I lay in bed I hold a pillow and all I do is think of the fact that I'll never get to hold her again.

I can't do this. I'm in extreme pain in my soul. I can't do this.

KNOW that He HEARS you. KNOW that, no matter how utterly crushed you are and no matter how many smithereens of slithers your heart is in, He HAS you. This reminder is for you, and me too. I've been there, and still am in some ways, although a bit diff'rent. The weird thing is (our Abba works and ministers to each of us in mysterious ways) that as i write this to you, and simultaneously praying, He ministers to me as well. He is the Lifter of our heads and the God of ALL COMFORT. Praying that you can sense how He is forming, even now, a future and a hope for you. He is He Who raises beauty from ashes. Father intervene and minister and heal as only You can, in Jesus name, amen.

Dear Lord, I pray that You make Yourself known to HeSaveDave right now. Jesus, this man is wounded and You're more than able to bind the broken heart, for the Bible says, "He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds." - Psalm 147:3. Your Word also says that, "Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted." - Matthew 5:4. So, when we're downtrodden, You are more than able to mend, fill, and lift us up by virtue of the Holy Spirit, "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up." - James 4:10. I pray for Dave that he find reassurance in these truths, in Jesus' name, Amen.

Isaiah 40:29-31
He gives power to the weak
and strength to the powerless.
Even youths will become weak and tired,
and young men will fall in exhaustion.
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.

Romans 8:37-39
No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.


2 Corinthians 4:16-18
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

1 Peter 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

Romans 5:2-5
Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Romans 8:24-25
For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

Romans 12:12
Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

Romans 15:4
For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

Sorry I can't relate. Working in law enforcement has made this cop cold to things like broken hearts. When you deal with crooks day and night, you'll know what I mean.

Well, heck, how about praying for faith to be able to "relate" to others' suffering, which is certainly what Messiah wants from us all, and to be healed from the shield that you have put up as the result of the very tough job you face? Rhetorical Q. I'm going to pray that for you before I pray regarding the original post here.

I am so sorry that you are going through all that pain. This can be the very worst time of year for it, too.

Praying for Messiah's holy angels to give you guidance, healing and comfort.

Thanks brothers and sisters. Please keep praying! I am seeing results! It's still hurting and it's so difficult. I really would appreciate any and all prayers.

I pray for you as well Officer. I was raised and grew up on the other side of the law and was hard and cold as well. Until I encountered Christ. He melted that old cold heart. I pray He will do the same for you.

HeSaveDave,

My heart goes out to you in these difficult times.
A broken heart is hard to live with, as I too have been in that situation.
My prayers go out to you, and hope that things get better every day.
Keep us posted.

Hugs and blessings :)
