  • 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.

Could I request prayer please? I'm still feeling hit by a recent bout of grief for my parents, although they died years ago. I feel as if my heart has been broken into little pieces and ground to powder! Then, when I thought I couldn't take any more I had a very distressing phone call; the caller thought they were comforting me, but they told me things which added to my sorrow. Please pray that I understand things as God wants me to, and to know how to handle this person in future. I want to win them for the Lord, but the comments are hard to take.


Thank you. :)

Free, I pray for comfort and peace for you. Be blessed, dear one.

I am also praying for that caller.

I had heard that extensive studies found no link between vaccines and autism.
You heard correctly :) Jan.

I know this as I, along with others, have worked with children... (stuck with that autism-label); and
as soon as, mostly, their mothers :) allow & display self-healing,

their child consequently is free to change their behavioral strategies as well.

Yes Amen to that.
As I work with people with autism I am keenly interested in finding some way to prevent (and cure) this condition.

I would appreciate some prayer for myself I saw the doctor yesterday and
he thinks I have a condition called diverticulitis. I am on clear fluids and antibiotics and will eventually have more tests. Since stopping eating I am feeling less pain. I also have a chest cold so not sure if the fever is from that or not. I hope to be ready to go back to work after this long weekend. Thanks jan
Hi Jan :wave:

I am soo glad you are also Interested in "preventing" :thumbsup: unhealthy conditions, children are burdened to bear.

Also, GOD Bless :angel: you as you continue seeking :) (of your own unhealthy conditions) being freed :thumbsup:

Continually I work :) and pray :pray: for both...

Thanks everyone for your prayers I know they have helped. I plan on heading to work tomorrow. The diet change is a strange one as at the moment I am not allowed any fiber in my diet. When I am healed I can then gradually add it again. Very hard to get my head around as I love whole grains raw veggies etc etc.

Rebornfree I am praying that you will find the comfort you need at this sad and lonely time. here is a lovely link I shared with another sister on cf.

I pray that all here may know the Lord's peace in their lives at this time, whatever their circumstances.

Thank you to all you dear people who continue holding us up in prayer. Prayers are being answered but we are still in some distress. Our grandson is settling in with us well under the circumstances.

I will look in when I can.

love and blessings to you all

Ley and Rob :hug: :hug: :wave:

Hi Jan :wave:
THANKS for this wonderful linkie... it's synchronistic :thumbsup:, as this past weekend,

Going to share it with as many other web-communities, as I can be blessed thinking of. :hug: Thanks!

For everyone who is hurting here this morning:

Hold Fast by Mercy Me


"To everyone who's hurting
To those who've had enough
To all the undeserving
That should cover all of us
Please do not let go
I promise there is hope

Hold fast
Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is His grasp
So hold fast

Will this season ever pass?
Can we stop this ride?
Will we see the sun at last?
Or could this be our lot in life?
Please do not let go
I promise you there's hope

You may think you're all alone
And there's no way that anyone could know
What you're going through
But if you only hear one thing
Just understand that we are all the same
Searching for the truth
The truth of what we're soon to face
Unless someone comes to take our place
Is there anyone?
All we want is to be free
Free from our captivity, Lord

Here it comes fast
Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing stronger than my strife
Is Your grasp
So hold fast
Help is on the way
So hold fast
He's come to safe the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is Your grasp
To hold fast"

Please pray today for anyone you know who is not a believer or who has drifted away.

I pray that the spiritual eyes of these lost souls will be opened to the truth of the gospel
and the strongholds in their lives will be removed.


Especially for the persons named here…

Mark, Kim, Lisa, Chris, Birdie
