• 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

35 He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine
arms.
36 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath
made me great.
37 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
38 I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again
until I had consumed them.
39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise:
yea, they are fallen under my feet.
40 For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against
me hast thou subdued under me.
41 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy
them that hate me.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but he
answered them not.
43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as
the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.
44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept
me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.
45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall
be obedient unto me.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
47 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the
rock of my salvation.
48 It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,
49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up
on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from
the violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and I
will sing praises unto thy name.
51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his
anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.

IJWTS-Sometimes when a guy shows interest in me, I have the urge to give him a disclaimer of sorts before we proceed further. There are some things about me that are a definite no-go for many guys. So, I'd at least like to have the "no birthing babies" disclaimer established right away.

I want to do that, too, with all my "weirdo" traits. I think many people want to put it all out there up front. But I've been told by guys, that I shouldn't do that. Like, give the guys a chance to know me a bit without jumping right into the deep must have's/can't stand's. It's hard to do that, cause we're so convinced they're gonna run for the hills as soon as "they really know us".
