  • 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

Prayers please

I'm asking for your prayers OBOBer's because my husband and I have just found out that our baby's heart has stopped beating and that our baby is dead. We were just approaching 13 weeks. Please pray for us and for our baby's soul.

Thank you!

ps Any prayer suggestions would be much appreciated.

Dearest friend,

You are in my prayers, and Ben's, and my family's, and Miss Kitty's. We all love you both, and are here for you. May Baby sleep in the arms of the angels.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen

Queen of Sorrows, pray for us, who fly unto thee.

Thank you everyone for your prayers and support. It came as such a shock to us. I had no signs that the baby had died, no bleeding or cramping or lessening of symptoms. We went to the ultrasound expecting to see our baby moving about for the first time:cry:. And we had just announced our pregnancy as I was beginning the second trimester. We know that our baby has only recently died.

Please keep me in your prayers today. I have to go to the hospital, they will remove the baby while I am under general anesthetic.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!:groupray:

Dear Assisi,
I do understand what you are going through, My wife and I had a miscarriage at twelve weeks followed by two ectopic pregnancies. I know that you are going through so much at this time, coping with your feelings and the feelings of those around you. This is a verse which came to me unlooked for literally five minutes after recieving the news of our miscarriage,

Rev7v17 .. and he will wipe away their every tear.

God does understand and will carry you through this time.
One other thing that I will say and this may be hard, but try to remember the brief time that you had with this child; remember the blessing and not just the grief. I would also say when you become pregnant again, which I am sure you will, do not be afraid to tell others. My wife and I, after our miscarriage made the decision to tell people when we next got pregnant and to enjoy the blessing that it brought and although we had two more failed pregnancies, I do not regret for one minute living in celebration for the brief period of blessing each brought us.

With love and prayers Jonathon

God bless you, Assisi. I am sorry for the pain you and your husband are going through. Cry out to Jesus, He hears your every word and thought. And He understands all of your feelings about what has happened.

I will remember you in my prayers. Be comforted knowing your sweet little one is with Him and you will see them one day, and then forever! Jesus carries our sorrows.

There is one thing I want to share with you. Maybe you know this already... Jesus looks upon your pain right now as suffering for Him. Because you have been open to receiving life from His hand, regardless of the outcome, you have been obedient. Your suffering is suffering for Him.

He showed this to me not long ago. I was sick through all of my pregnancies and had difficult births. Jesus showed me that this suffering was suffering for Him. And I felt in my heart to tell you the same thing right now. God bless and comfort you.
