• 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

I know not having your folks not speaking to you is rough. My other brother is that way too. I wil be praying for you and your folks. Life is way to short not to be talking to each other.

Just because your single is not the worst thing in the world. Being in prison would be the worst. Being in a nurseing home as a resident could be. Look at that young women in Fla. that has been kept alive with machines for al those years.

Thanks for the prayers. I try to tell them It could be a whole lot worse. They just won't let the past go. They keep harping on things that I did when i was a whole other person and they just can't seem to see how much I've changed. It's been over 15 yrs and I still live under that shadow.

I've seen situations like that and they are heartbreaking for all involved.

Well what I have learned is what has happen has happen. You cannot change history, you can learn from it. Sometimes it just better to let go of it... Why rehash it hopefully it won't happen again. Just let go of it. The old has pass away You are new again. The whole thing is that God threw his son has offered you and every one else forgiveness. This is what our hope is built on..

I don't know the details of what you did. It's not important. What is important is how you are living now...

No you can't change history. And no I'm not what I was. so......... I guess the only thing I can do is leave it up to God. I know He know's I'm trying my best.
That's the best thing you can do. Surrander it to God and he will do all the fixin. After all you are just a blob of clay and He is the potter.
