  • 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.

Sorry I have been busy and not able to log on as much as usual. I have tried to catch up with the requests and I am praying. sorry especially to hear about Kay's troubles around the 15th I do hope that the oppression is lifting sis. And keep I had forgotten about the thumb surgery hang in their.
Please pray for me I am trying my hardest toget all of our taxes done. so far I have done 3 of my sons.(Ihave never done them before but we have been teaching the Math Application students how so I thot I would try. I don't think I can tackle hubby's and mine too complicated. We will try to do them together with the help of a program. Anyway it does cause a bit of pressure.
Also I would like to ask that you please lift our church up in prayer, it is a tiny wee thing and seems to be getting smaller all the time.
And now our Pastor is on stress leave for personal issues. He feels bad but we don't want him to come back before he is ready. Actually I am getting a chance to do more music ministry and expand my role by choosing the songs and actually leading our team. (It is mostly our family. Hubby and two sons. ) but it is a great experience. I guess we need the Holy Spirits strength to shine as a small group after all Jesus started with only 12. Jan

Using only one hand to try to do everything
has made me very impatient and frustrated to the point of tears. I could use a few prayers. Thank you

and
have you any idea, what not being able to (digest, remember, function, walk, stand, sit, etc. for 4-9 yrs.) feels like?

I will pray...:hug:

I had my left hand in a cast for about 6 weeks once...for wrist surgery...I had a crawling baby boy in the house at that time...don't remember how I got through...but I do remember that cast really was painful...they had set pressures points on the hand & wrist some way...I also got depressed from something that should have been and was pretty simple. Someone said the drugs and anesthetics can make a person depressed...I am not a medical expert on it tho.

:prayer: for Barbara. I'm sorry, Buttercup. My memory is failing me here. :blush: Now did Barbara have surgery for cancer or what? I can't remember the situation clearly.:scratch:

Thank you for your appreciation Annie

From hard-experience, I learned:
Do not 24/7 selflessly love...care...contribute... to everyone else's needs,
while believing wholeheartedly JESUS will take care of our own basic needs,
like sleep.

But, this is my belief...
to selflessly give, whatever I have, whenever I can
and according to how I feel, the spirit leads me

The 'truth' is, that I cannot give MORE than I am given, to give
that if, there IS a 'limit'..... [?]
then that, will be decided by a power greater than any man

I once, made a hangman's noose... and stepped up to it 'unafraid'
The world, [my world] had sucked me dry and deserted me
at a time I was made so ill, that, I didn't know how much longer I had-left
my physical discomfort was INVISIBLE to my family
such that they openly 'denounced me' as SHAMMING illness
out of laziness... ~they, missed my 'breadwinning'

I heard a 'voice' from within me [not, with my ears]
"wait, until morning, things will be different then"

The 'voice' had been FIRM, though not commanding
My thoughts then were 'again' of, reconciliation
But, this was not the outcome of my stepping down and awakening next day

The reaction, of my then estranged spouse, to the discovery of the noose
exposed the real person beneath [the past, sweet exterior]
which imparted to me, that the loss, that I had perceived was to be mine
was indeed... a lifting, of an undeserved and parasitic burden

What followed in the time then to come...
began with a lack of torment followed by the ending of responsibility for that past
and the gradual restoring of faith as my path, was then lit by angels

Strength, is relative to the task with which we are faced
but His strength the MORE is
Who, shall fear becoming surrounded by lions when He loves us ?

I am David, eldest son, of, John and Gwen
I will, always, be so, even when... there is nobody left, in the world
to recall my name

I do not [cannot] iceskate... or rollerskate...
but I do know, that many 'enjoy it'... it, sets them FREE

May God's peace be with you and remain with you always

dave
