  • 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.

i would like to ask prayer the mental stress and emotions with being single. i know i have heard all the things like, "don't worry, God will bring you the one that is meant for you", and all that. so please, i don't want to hear that. i know and believe it with all my heart. but anymore, the days are just getting really lonely. going through some issues, and how much it would be nice to have a g/f to go through this with. i have watched couples, that have one side going through something bad, maybe a mistake they committed, or just something bad, and how beautiful it is to see a relationship stick through our humanity. and i know i am not going through alone, but i think in some ways i am starting to close myself off unintentionally. i have my blessed mother, my little 9-year old sister she's an angel, and my friends, but my close friends, but it would just be nice to have someone that you know is falling in pure and true love with you, strengthening you and being there for you when the days get hard. lately, it just have been really more lonelier than the other days. i know it passes, but sometimes, i just want to give up, and not feel like i do towards relationships, because it is easy to think that it has gotten you no where, when all you have is nothing. so really my main prayer request in this is, just prayer for i guess, continuation, strength. i am not asking God for a handout, and to just give me complete bliss, because i know that won't happen, and i am glad for that, because that means i need God more and more. so if anyone wants to pray for me on that, it would be great. God Bless you all <><

Joe,
Don't give up. Things often look the bleakest just before you are blessed more than you could ever expect. Seek, the one you'll be with for the rest of your life, respect and honor her. Don't rush into anything. I know you know most of this already, so --Agree with me today on this:

LORD,
We come unto You today asking for thy bountiful blessings upon Joe. Fill him with thy HOLY SPIRIT that he may have reassurance and comfort in the SURE knowledge that YOU are with him. He ask, FATHER, that you would hear his cry for the love and companionship of a Christian woman. We know, O LORD, that we were not intended to walk this Earth alone, but with that special one you made for us to share our lives with. Bring them together soon and guide them into Godly lives that will bless them and those that come into their lives.

In the Precious Name of JESUS we pray.

thanx peeps. must appreciated. i know it's one of them normal prayer requests a lot of Christians here, it is just odd for me not ask prayer request with the bad days that come with being single, instead of asking it for God to end it quickly. maybe more wisdom has come in me eh? lol. i don't want to get to prideful, hehe. but we learn from our mistakes that is for sure.

well thank you guys. it is much appreciated.

just for an update, nothing much has changed. as it is said in, "The Great Lebowski", have some strikes and have some gutters, something to that extent. so thank you for the prayers! :)

God Bless you all!

Joe <><
