• 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.

The daily thread.

There are some nights when I can't sleep, my mind just refuses to shut down. So I get my Android Tablet, go to YouTube and bring up the book of Psalms.
Rarely do I make it to Psalms 40


It was probably a good thing you didn't, you may have been committed. The world just doesn't understand what we have in Christ.


From this Scripture?
Hebrews 6:18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
6:19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil

Thank you. I'm listening now, and i will be listening again tonight.

i was gonna post a grinning cheshire cat, but i can't seem to find him...he must've disappeared again

:doh:
The frumious bandersnatch strikes again.

For the last 2 days this has been running around in my head like a tune that won't go away. I have no idea where it came from. I remember reading Jabberwocky years ago, but haven't thought about in 10-15 years or so. Out of the blue the thought of the frumious bandersnatch comes in. I had to google it to find the poem.

This is a song which speaks to me now, it is sung in spanish but I have found an english translation of the lyrics online for you to read, if you'd like.


I'm tired of hiding it
I'll now never be ashamed of you
The world have to know
i Will Tell you what you have done in me

I'll be a reflection of your grace
A faithful witness to your infinite love
I will proclaim that you alone are my God

Clothed in your grace I will live
With the light of your glory I will shine
Of your infinite love I will sing
I will declare Your name
I will never be ashamed

And in your presence I will dance
Whatever you say I will do
I will glorify you Jesus I will live for you

What I have I'm going to spread it
What I say I'm going to prove it
Maybe without having to say
Your love, I'm going to manifest it
To hear me or to see me
The world will know me
I am the light and I will not hide
Salt and I will not fade
I will be a read letter
That tells of the work you have done with my life
I have a defined identity
a lion that scape of
They do not had my cunning
They will see what I am through Your grace
I will be the echo that always declares you
I will go only where your presence guides me

Clothed in your grace I will live
With the light of your glory I will shine
Of your infinite love I will sing
I will declare Your name
I will never be ashamed

And in your presence I will dance
Whatever you say I will do
I will glorify you Jesus I will live for you

I will keep myself bright
In your love and your grace perceiving
With my example of life preaching.
Wherever I go
Someone will notice
That my life rhymes with what my mouth says
Coherent, meaningful
I will never go unnoticed
You lifted me up; You transformed me
You saved me with your sacrifice
The least I can offer you
Is my life rendered at your service
Your will i will do
To go out, to do my duty
May my life tell a story
That was written with your glory

I'm tired of hiding it
I'll now never be ashamed of you
The world have to know
i Will Tell you what you have done in me

I'll be a reflection of your grace
A faithful witness to your infinite love
I will proclaim that you alone are my God

Clothed in your grace I will live
With the light of your glory I will shine
Of your infinite love I will sing
I will declare Your name
I will never be ashamed

And in your presence I will dance
Whatever you say I will do
I will glorify you Jesus I will live for you

What I have I'm going to spread it
I will keep myself bright
What I say I'm going to prove it
In Your love and Your grace I will live
Amen.

Interesting that a Spanish word has been left in the translation!
