• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Thanks for writing this. I totally agree. God has also told me that I will minister to the broken hearted, healing people of broken hearts among other things, and bringing them to Christ as a result of that. Suffering sucks especially when a person is as sensitive and emotional as I but it has it's good in the long run and perspective of things. :pink:

There is also a third issue singles face. Getting by without someone. And we try this in anumber of ways too. Sometimes, we pour ourselves into careers. Sometimes, we pour ourselves into hobbies or traveling or sports.

This isn't bad as long as long as its in accord with God and one doesn't use these things to fill the places only God can fill.

This is very true. A rather large subject in itself. Perhaps, I will give it some thought. One would think I would be an expert at this, since I have done it all of my life.
