  • 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

Ok i am not realy sure whether this falls under testimonies or not but i'll post here anyway. The thing that happened to me is paved with interesting things to say the least.

I prayed to God about something, i'd rather keep it a secrect but i will say if it is absolutely necessary. Ok so i was determined to believe that when you ask for something it will happen, although i knew that statement is not about material things, i was willing to give it a go regardless.

Ok so The first time i prayed i was like devasted, and i asked Jesus to be my Brother, i was like please, pretty please. I won't go much into details here but when i had finished i joined some internet game and the first message there i received was "I will always be your brother".
Although i was pretty sure that was just a coincidence it put a smile on my face.

The second time that day i prayed was about some gathering i had to attend, and i wanted something there to happen, so i asked god and was determined to believe.
Anyway as you probably can guess, things didn't go as i wanted or perhaps?
While i was on my way home it was raining really hard and i had no choice but to walk (don't ask). I asked myself ok, so what exactly happened, i asked God "what am i missing", "what exactly do i need to know"?

Then at once i was overflown with that werid thought, as if someone told me "ok enough, let me speak for now". The words were just coming out of my mouth, i mean i was speaking them but the thoughts that came to me were not mine really, it was like:

"It did happen"
"Father you who always looked at me with a smile on your face"
"Brother, you who allowed me to enter through the gate"
"Holy spirit, you who helped the Son carry the Cross"

"I do not see because i am blind"
"I do not hear beacuse i do not have the ears"
"I do not perceive with my heart because there is nothing good in me"

"Here is your son"

That was followed by heavy tears on my side, it wasn't sorrow or something, just tears.

When i got home, i wanted to check something on the Net and the first message appeared was "Those who sow with tears will reap with Songs of joy". That would be fine if i had not tried to search for something completely unrelated.


Thanks, consider the fact that Enlish isn't my first language and sry for if any mistakes.

Now here are some things i'd like to ask.

1. Is this just a desperate wish on my part to make something of this?
2. What exactly happened to me?
3. What exactly does all this mean?

I don't mean to be rude, but what do you want God to do?

You prayed to Him, and it appears He answered you. He loves you and cares about you. Now have faith in Him, and perhaps stop asking for signs?
