• 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

I need your opinions!

I think the best thing to do is to pray that God will eather separate a person from your life if they are not the one, or bring them closer and give confirmation that they are the one.

You have to be careful however, not to see "signs" that are just coincidences and assume that they are confirmation... even if they are from God, He won't mind you asking for more, less coincidental confirmation.

I personnaly made an oath between me and God. I gave him a sign that would confirm to me His will. In return, I surrendered my right to select my wife, and I will not date a girl until he gives me that sign. I want his will.

What would that sign be?

I'm actually working on writing a column about this issue. I definitely believe that God has a plan for us and for who we will marry. Yet, I don't think we will meet that person until we have a strong enough love for God and for ourself so that we can properly love another person. I definitely think that until God sends that special person to be in our life, we must work on establishing a strong relationship with God and also become the best person we can possible be so that we can give of ourselves fully to that special person.

God does have a plan and we just have to give our all to him to make that work. And his ways and will always works for the best of us. As well as our honoring him and gloryfying him. And to establish a relationship with God through that person.

What confirmations have you received?
