• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Need some support,guidance

In "When The Light Appears" you are saying that in the darkness God was there and He extended His hand to you? And is He the Source of the Light? Also it looks like you're saying that "seeing" is not always with the eyes, but through the heart, and that seeing through the heart is "faith"?

Where are you going to sell it Miguel?

Miguel, it sounds like you are saying that God's Light, His "hope" shines in the darkest of places, and that there is hope even if all seems very dark?

Are you saying that God has been with you all this time, even if He was not always seen?

yes,because i cant be on cults or assembles,and being alone,my perception of it might be different,but i was on the edge so many times,and in that time..something happen,a good feeling appear.
when you see nothing,and your chest hurts so much,feeling that good feeling so suddenly and then something happens,that brings you out.

Due to all that i have passed since august of last year,the fact that im here by itself is a work of god

But i must say brinny, im afraid,a lot,only when you start feeling necessity and you see that you can lost your most beloved person due to a pathetic greed.

With that pain that isnt going down,being here ,able to type that is already something that i dont understand

I think that when everything is so bad, we find truths deep within us that we could not know any other way than through what we have suffered or are suffering. ((((((hug)))))

It is only when everything is taken away from us that we truly find God.

Amen and how profoundly true that is Anjelica. To rise from that seeming destruction is a miracle and the pure grace of God manifested in a visible, concrete way through the survivor's testimony.

I have,and im under that for sometime
the tiny small miracle of see the grass move by the act of god of nature.
that small hapiness of see the sun appear
that is what bring something else to me
and little by litte,you notice something is there
and that something of you have changed

I saw a dove the other day Miguel. At first she was in a tree branch and then she flew over, alighting on my window sill where i was. She visited a couple of times that day. I knew that God sent her to remind me of something. I realized what it was when i saw what was hanging in my window....a stained glass sun catcher. The sun catcher has this written on it..."Peace".

Yes, God blesses us and reminds us through various ways, through nature, his creatures, and through each other.

May prayer is that He brings peace to you and your mom and your household that nothing can remove or take away. (((hug)))

I dont have a priest of a chapel near to me
What i known,is what i feel it
When you have no ones to give you a hand or to share the word of god with you
I learned to see it in the day,day by day
Even with pain,even in despair..there is always a small event,a small miracle..that gives me a warm feeling,and keep me going

Awwwww yes there is Miguel. God will meet you where you are at and bless your heart in many ways, as you said, moment by moment and day by day to keep you going from one moment to the next. (((hug)))
