Serving Christ is the most exciting experiance ever. If you are honest and willing you can receive so many rewards. There are not enough words to describe the excitement of serving Jesus Christ and feeling God's Love and Blessing's daily. With all the excitement sometimes it does hurt. How can I say that? This is just my feeling ( opinion ). When I sin it hurts me knowing I have went against God's will, even though all I have to do is ask and I am forgiven. Even things you may give up that are interfering with your walk with God at first may hurt. Then there are the individuals that may interfere or try to interfere with your walk with God, even though some may not realize. You do not just have to abandon them or never talk to them. Yet it hurts when you feel they are out of step in their walk with God and all you can do is pray. You may have a feeling they are involved in or saying things they should not be. You do not need to know anymore than God wishes for you to know. Even though it may hurt at times God is protecting you. You may not understand and when things go wrong for them you may want to get involved. Unless God directs you don't. Pray and be patient. No matter the outcome God has a plan. And if they know God's word and promise, yet refuse to stay in the right mind it is not your fault. I am not trying to be judgemental, this is what I have felt. Even though I may not understand and at times it may hurt, I stand strong, pray and cotinue to be available and faithful to God and know in my heart everything will be ok in Jesus Name

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.
Sometimes It Hurts

amen to that David. Sometimes it is the hurt and the burden that people begin to blame God for their circumstances. If only we could all hold to that attitude.
