  • 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 is a nice lttle poem that I thought I would share with you, eventhough I think it maybe it is more directed to new Christians I hope you enjoy it.



I Am Learning, Lord


My life has taken many falls
And tumbles along the way.
The trials have left me,
In a sure state of dismay.

For with each trial , I tried alone
To tend , and soothe , and mend,
Instead of giving them to God
And on Him just depend....

But I am learning, Lord.

It seems that I was determined
To carry all the load;
I longed for smoother pathways
Yet I walked a rocky road.

Little did I understand,
God waited patiently
To pave a new beginning
With a better life for me....

But I am learning, Lord.

It took a real disaster
To bring me to my knees;
To finally call upon the Lord
And say, " God help me please"

He can with no delaying
With strong arms that could hold
The weight of all my burdens;
He gladly took the load.

But I am learning, Lord.

What a needless cross I carried,
All because I could not see
What a friend I have in Jesus,
And the love he has for me.

Peace I find when troubles hover,
Though the outcome is unknown,
For if yet the road is rocky,
I won't walk it all alone...

For I am learning, Lord
