• 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 is or I guess would be our 13th Wedding Anniversary. My husband has been gone from me a little over one year. Strangely enough I think today is even worse than it was last year. I am so lonley. I miss him so much. After 15 months the pain is still horrible. I don't want to be in this horrible place for the rest of my life, but it just doesn't seem to be getting much better. Some days are a little better,but for the most part they are all pretty bad.
I had to go shopping earlier today and the woman that was behind me in line just happened to mention that today was her 51 Wedding anniversary. What did I do to deserve only eleven years with my husband. I have never wanted very much in life; just someone to love and be loved by. Guess that is too much to ask for.
Thanks for listening.

redwind, I pray the Lord fills you with His peace, comfort and love as you walk this difficult territory. May you find that to be alone is not necessarily to be lonely, because we are never alone in Him. And may the Lord bring you through this valley, perfecting His strength in your weakness, and give you your hind's feet to walk in your high pastures.

My Sweetest Father God...:prayer:

Help this beautiful couple to understand that a vocation is not only a matter of attraction...:prayer:

Enable them to see clearly that it is also a matter of finding, in ordinary events, Our Sweetest Father God's will for them and then accepting it even if it seems to be baffling and contrary to their wishes...:prayer:

Teach those called to the marriage state by the Lord to reflect deeply on the delicate choice that will influence their destiny...:prayer:

Let them not be deceived by their feelings...:prayer:

Instead, let them look for the solid qualities that keep a home united in the joy of the Our Sweetest, Loving Lord...:prayer:

Teach unhappy spouses the power of patience and mildness...:prayer:

Let them not give way to discouragement but, like YOU, let them save both the happiness of their home and the soul of their spouse.
