• 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.

LORD,
Be with Cinni as she goes for her driving test. Give her clarity and reassurance of your presence and of the skills you have endowed her with. Let her heart not be troubled, but give her the confidence to know that she will pass. And, we ask that you be with her in all things, including when she is fully licensed and on the road. Help her LORD to always maintain proper control of her car (truck, whatever). Keep her safe as she travels.
These things and more we ask through JESUS CHRIST our LORD.

well, I don't know what to tell you.:sorry: strike that, reverse it. sometimes when we ask God for things, he doesn't always say "yes." sometimes he says "wait" or he may even say "no". God is perfect, and omniciant, and therefore, he has a perfect will for our life. Perhaps God did not allow you to pass because he is protecting you from a future accident that would have happened had you been able to drive. perhaps he did not allow you to pass because you were not trusing in him, hypothetically speaking of course. :scratch:

And then again, if we could explain the was of God, and how he works in our lives to give us the best of all possible outcomes, then he would cease to be who he is... God, Yahweh, the Creator of Heaven and Earth, Sustainer of Life, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. Onmipotent, Omniciant, Omnipresent, Our All In All. Do not be afraid to Trust in God, he has your best intrest at heart, weather you know what your best intrest is or not. He will never leave you, nor forsake you. Hang in there, Girl:prayer:

Thank you machin chin i needed to hear that i was blaming god as much as i am ashamed to admit it i am angry when i worked so hard and prayed to him so much i said to god earlier today and yesterday you know my heart lord and if it be your will you will allow this to happen.

An hour ago i went out and queried a few things and seems i may have been unjustly failed after what i found out and i could turn into the instructors worse nightmare and contest it but i have to ask god whether that would be doing the right thing cos right now i am pretty down and not sure what to do.

Sorry to hear you didn't pass, but Machin Shin is right, we don't always understand why things work out as they do- now we see through a mirror darkly- but in the end we will see face to face (1 Corinthians 13:12) and understand why all these things happened. I try to reassure myself with that when things don't go right (from my point of view) for me.
:hug: for :pray: for you Cinni

Cinni,
Don't try to become the instructors worst nightmare - that isn't the right! If he made an error in scoring you, bring it to his attention humbly and with the Love of GOD. I know that it feels nice to strike back at those who have hurt us, but as Christians we are to forgive, we are bless them and show them kindness.
Remember, also, that GOD only makes one deal with us - if, we accept JESUS as our Savior he will give us eternal life with HIM. While HE may grant us our petition when we come to HIM and say "LORD, give me a new car and I'll drive old people to Church.", (just an example) He wants to give us good things because HE's our DADDY!!! Seek HIS guidance as you decide how to proceed on this. Know that prayers continue to ascend for you and for more understanding and compassion for your husband.

Tim
