• 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.

Please pray...

Tomorrow I'm going off to university. Please would you pray that I will be kept safe, that I may be strengthened through my lows and that God will guide me all the time, according to His will. But most importantly that I don't fade away from Him.

I would greatly appreciate this as, quite frankly, I am terrified!

Thanks alot & God bless

:)

:hug: and :pray: for you! especially for safety, strength and closeness to the Lord.
It's a terrifying time indeed (so long ago for me it's difficult to remember..) but most universities are blessed by various Christian Fellowships and I'm sure you will see this at "Freshers' week" (or whatever it's called where you go)
That can help make friends and find supportive people who are in the same boat as you, walking with the Lord during your time there!
:hug: again..

I made wonderful wonderful (did I say "wonderful" yet ;) ) friends when I attended college. They are still my friends to this day. They were great Christians. I got involved in Campus Crusade For Christ, the Baptist Student Union and Intervarsity when I went to college. I also found a good church. Because of these things, I grew in the Lord. I pray the same for you.
Can't underestimate the great importance of staying in a fellowship of believers.

Dear LORD,
Be with aLx as he goes off to college. Keep him safe and guide him as he pursues his studies. Bring him ever closer to You and give him a thirst for thy Holy WORD. Let him be used by You to reach others and let him be a blessing unto many. May many bless him in turn.
In JESUS Name we pray
