Let me just give you the cliff notes on whats been going on in my life the last couple of years so you can fully understand what god has done in my life. My wife and have been living a life of full sexual and moral depravity for the last 12 years. we have both been miserable people. I have been plagued by anxiety and panic attacks so bad i wouldn't use the phone or leave the house for months at a time and because of this i started getting disability payments of only $800 a month. We made all of our money in an illegal manner. I loved my children but was hardley involved in any part of their lives. 2 months ago my wife got up and left myself and my children. My youngest son who just turned 1 yesterday started having a tumor like growth on his leg. The doctors in our town were talking about cancer and amputating his leg. I also found out during this time that the same child had severe lung problems my wife never told me about or treated. I was also over weight and smoked and had tried to fix these problems myself with never any luck. My only car was also breaking down and i had no money to fix it.2 weeks ago i called upon the lord to take the drivers seat and admitted that i could not do this alone. In this last 2 weeks i have had zero panic attacks. I have quit smoking. I have lost weight (10 pounds). The baby went to a specialist in another town and we found out it is not cancer. He does not need a amputation on his leg. His lungs in just two weeks are greatly improved. I am happier then i have been since i was a child. My car was not only fixed but fixed for free! I am enrolled in college classes that will start in January. My children are still hurting very bad but we have a closer relationship then we ever have and i look forward every day to being a part of their life. My wife is still gone and still sinning and has told me that she is not saved but i pray for her everyday several times a day. Nothing in my life is perfect but praise be to god my life compared to two months ago is like night and day! I wake up every morning now and praise god for another wonderful day.

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.
