• 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.

And that He would be
Needing on those to go
With Him and that is where the
Twelve men that would leave their
Jobs and go and be His Disciples as
It would be a learning experience and
How they would have to overcome their
Differences and work together and ask for help.

Doing all things in Christ
As not just part of the things
Little to no things but in ALL
Things are possible with
Christ as it says so in the

Showing who the Lord really is!

All things are possible as
The Lord will promise us that
He will give us what we need
Not really want we want and
Knowing that Christ should be
Front and center of it all and
When we do it on our own
You and I bit off more than we can chose.

We can't do it by ourselves when
It is beyond us and that we
Now wished that we didn't
Find ourselves over in such a
Difficult situation and beyond and
How we need Christ to help
Us when we drown ourselves in sorrow
Much more worse beyond that.

Christ is unlimited and the
Great I am and that the Great
I will do and that when we
Ask Him to help us out of the
Situation we find ourselves in
You and I will have what we
Need even if it is not what we
Wanted because Christ succeeds all of our
Expectations in needing and wanting.

He is the Great I Am
And that He delivers even if
Least expected it and not what
We really want but there is something
You and I need and that He
Promises as His promises are
Much more better than we could
Ever expected here my friends.

If we believe and need to do so
Quietly He is working His magic in us!

Chew we realize that we do
Indeed need the help that only
Our Lord and Savior can provide.

Just remember that when you
And I get really caught up
In the mess and we can't
Get ourselves out of it
Realizing that we need the
Lord to rely upon Him and
He can help us if we allow Him to
Do the work and His job for us.

As when we turn upon
God and that He allows
Jesus to intervene in our
Lives and give up control
Even though we are at first
Initially skeptical thinking we can
Do it all alone but again we overwhelm ourselves.

Going to Christ should
Be our go to and first and
Foremost as He will help to slowly
Yet surely in His way that even
If things don't happen overnight
Christ will make it happen
Just give Him your worries and
Cares so that He can work miracles in
Us and it will be the best decision ever
Read Philippians 4:13!

We can never at all repay
The Lord as hard as we can
Do our best but still the Lord
Knows we can't ever repay or
Overpay the Lord but Jesus should
Always be placed in our hearts
First and foremost and knowing
He is the Great I Am you see.

It is about placing all
Things in Christ and when we
Put it on ourselves as we
Could be stuck forever and
Never get ourselves out of
Very tough situations that could
Last a very long time or even sadly
Forever truthfully until we call out to Christ.

All things are possible and
How that when we do things

Does what He needs to do even if
We don't expect it but He gives and
Really does the best beyond our imagination
His thoughts and ways are not ours.

Questioning why we need to give it
Up to God and let Him control
It is not what He gives us when we
Want it but when we need it
His timing is always the best
Giving us what we need at the right
Place and time as it is a Godsend literally!

Christ shows up and He
Will be always front and
Center in our lives and how
Placing ourselves in thinking we
Do the unthinkable, God moves from the
Impossible to the possible and in
Knowing what we need rather than what
We want when Jesus shares and helps us
At the right place and time.

There is a difference between needs and
Wants as they are the same thing
But they are not the same thing
As what we want may not be what
We need and that what we think we wanted
God will give us but it may not want exactly but
He gives us when we really need.

Needs is what we really need in the
Very long run and that the definition over in
Want is what we think that we need
But really it is not what we need
However remember that in the Bible
God says that our thoughts and ways
Are not His thoughts and in ways
Jesus knows better and He's perfect!

God knows best and
He is thinking about the long
Term vs that over in the short term
How that God wants us to
Be in the same kind of mindset
We don't have to be perfect but
Need to be in the having on the same
Kind of understanding He would want
Us to have as believers in Him.

Even if we think that we
WANT it but do not really need it
But what we NEED it is essential to our well-being
As long as we can really
Need it and really proves over in the
Long term vs the short term
But remember Christ should be in that
Decision first and foremost you see
Even if it doesn't make sense.
