• 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.

I've read some of the other threads about landing a desired job, or a positive change in emotional state. I guess it's not very convincing for me, personally.

How do you distinguish what is God's personal intervention, and what is luck, coincidence, chance, or natural causation?

I was attacked by 2 pitbulls, 1 of them foaming at the mouth. I ran and screamed like a little girl, and they knocked me to the ground. I fell in such a way as to be looking at them, and i called out to Jesus. The dogs backed off in fear while looking above me.

I guess i havent been as thankful for that as i should have been. Im thankful Gods lead me on towards a deeper communion with him, and has given me of his spirit. Im thankful that Gods going to glorify himself greatly through me one day, like he has with others. Im thankful that Gods going to give me freedom in his spirit, that hes going to bring to fullness this peace and power he promised us through christ.
