  • 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 am thanking God for milder weather today for us here in Victoria Australia where there are massive fires.
This helps the firefighters trying to put in containment lines.
Thank you Lord.

This is exactly what I was pointing towards. Whilst many would still worry and be frightened because of the fires, you still manage to see something good happening amidst it. You see God's faithfulness is at work, He brings in the mild weather to keep everything well in check.

Although He tells us through His Word to not worry nor fear when a lot of things like this happens:

Matthew 24:6-8

"And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows."

God bless you for your insights and encouragement.
This may sound silly but I delight when we get weather different from what is forecast and just reminds me that God is ultimately in control and whether we understand the things that are happening or not.:)

You are not strange. Even though I can look at the weather forecast I also look outside, as it doesn't always go as the weather people predict.

Not so long ago it said on my phone forecast that it was snowing. I looked outside and there were no snow. ^_^ I just found it funny.

God IS in control with everything! Weather people predict a lot what their technology can catch up, and even though it can be right several times, there are many times in which it doesn't go as they tell. But God choses as He wills it.

Much Love in Christ Jesus! :yellowheart:

The weather has been milder which has helped the firefighters in their battles.
And some rain, praise God!
The fires are still burning of course but we take every bit of rain we can.
In one mountainous area the news said there was a concern for flash flooding! Can you believe it?
All in all no matter what we trust in God.
