• 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.

  • 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.

Today I was praying to Jesus and was hurt at what I had endured during my torture. Jesus let me know that it was the sin nature of the people who hurt me. I was reminded of my own sin nature. I was grateful that Jesus has saved me from my own sin nature. I know that I am naturally sinful and I am glad to have Jesus to save me from my sins. I sometimes struggle with comparing myself and coveting but Jesus saves me from these sins and helps me to know I am safe and beautiful in him.

I think we all struggle with coveting at some point. I keep telling myself to not covet. The Lord makes sure i remember.

Jesus endured much more than most people ever will at the hands of others, yet at the end he prayed to the Father to forgive them for they knew not what they were doing. In 1 Corinthians 2:8, it says that none of the rulers of this age understood what they were doing, for if they had, then they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. In the same way, the people who harmed you did not know what they were doing, for if they knew how precious you are, then they would have never done it to you, and because they did not know what they were doing you are able to likewise pray for God to forgive them. Something is telling me that you need to watch this video on love and forgiveness:

Thank you so much for these words. Thank you for saying that they did not know how precious I was and that is why they harmed me. I have struggled at times with praying to God to forgive them but that is what I will do. I feel it will give me peace to forgive them. Also, thank you so much for the video.
