  • 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 stumbled”


I had a dream and they told me it was sent by God.
And I was surprised that the Lord of All Creation should turn His eyes on me.
I was honoured.

I was then told that I should do all I can to look for God in my life and fullfill His will.
I complied, happy to see my soul singing in joy, so eager it was.

I strove to do all it took to be closer to God.
I asked Him to show me which way I should go and gladly followed His lead.
Every little step I took in the right direction brought me peace and joy.
A luxury it was.
And then I started to crave for more and more,
eager to take next steps on the path leading to God.
Only it was gone.

It was gone from before my eyes, and I felt so lost!
I looked around, but couldn’t see it.
I asked for it to be revealed, but it was not.
I took a few steps on my own, but for every step that I had taken in the right direction with God’s lead,
now I took five for each.
And all wrong.

Where does that lead me?
Where it is that I am now?

I look around and I can’t see anything but darkness.
I pray but I can feel my voice being stifled by invisible walls.
What hope I once had is now nearly gone,
Consumed by darkness that are eating up my soul.

And yet, I still ask, where is my God?

I like this piece..it really carries the message of being lost very clearly..God never leaves us. It's true that when we try to do something on our own,we mess it up. We mess it up because we are afraid that God has forsaken us. As the Bible says:"O ye of little faith!".
Hebrews 13:5
"...for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee"
God bless!
