• 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.

Hab 3:17, 18
Though the fig tree shall not blossom,
and fruit is not on the vines;
the labor of the olive fails,
and the fields yield no food.
The flock is cut off from the fold,
and no herd is in the stalls;
yet I will rejoice in Jehovah,
I will joy in the God of my salvation.

Zephaniah 3:17 "The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing."

Aah I love this verse. To picture God, our Abba, our Creator rejoicing over us? Can you picture that? He sings over us with pure joy! What a picture of Who our Abba is.

The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will REJOICE and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will REJOICE greatly and shout for JOY.



The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God. Is. 35:1-2





"Sing, O barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for JOY, you who were never in labor;
because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband, says the Lord." Is.54:1





I have been in the wilderness a long time...a barren woman in many respects...but I believe my time of "blooming" is near.
