• 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

prayer for mercy please

1. car insurance bill I have no money to pay or credit to pay with, insurance company threatening cancellation by Nov. 3rd
2. phone bill I don't have money to fully pay, it is linked to my bank account. Have had 2 overdrafts on my bank account for the last 2 months of phone bill, don't want another one.
3. don't want to beg my abusive parents for money to pay the car insurance, pretty sure their solution to that will be to take my car away from me. They made a "deal" that they would pay the insurance in exchange for me taking the car, which my dad reneged on after I won the eviction case against him. I ignored that fault because financial aid paid it while I was in college and I wanted to focus on my school instead of a time wasting fight.
4. Very angry and frustrated with myself right now. All of my attempts to find a job or earn money recently have either backfired or landed in failure again. Please pray that the Lord opens my blind eyes and I stop being a stupid financial moron.
5. My parents are moving back in on November 3rd, and neither me nor my brother have room for them or their stuff. Please pray that the Lord stops them from even showing up. My dad's name is still on the deed, but I can't handle this right now and I don't want them here.

1, 2, and 3 have been resolved. I kind of now have a handle on what has been causing 4, and my parents' arrival has been mercifully delayed until tomorrow. Thanks for praying for me.

Emotional abuse is just the gift that keeps on giving, and noadrenaline addiction is a really nasty thing to fight. Basically for the past ten years I've been an adrenaline junkie, but instead of jumping off buildings I've been fighting abusive relationships. This is why abuse victims become abusers and get attracted to abusers. It's an addiction to inflicting pain on others, and you want your high.

The latter I was able to resist becoming, so instead I became reckless and irresponsible and lived my life on the edge. Getting a job is boring and working it is even more boring. Also I obviously had no fun for my childhood, so I have recklessly pursued my own pleasure at the expense of others. And of course my pride stepped in to tell me that I was smarter than everyone else for doing this.

If you can, please continue to pray for me. I may have won the eviction case, but I don't want to live here anymore.

5 got semi-resolved, I guess. We got their moving truck unloaded, but the house is still filled to the brim with stuff, especially my room.

I got some birthday money for financial relief. I have some idea of what to get rid of, but I still want to move out. Please pray for guidance for me. I still have very little idea what is going on or what to do.
