• 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.

  • 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.

Things are getting overwhelming

I dunno where else to turn things are just getting overwhelming again I've been out of work for a year but that's the least of my concerns.
My mother is very very sick and we don't know whats wrong her hemoglobin (red blood cell count) was at 50 and it should be 90-120 so she's ether bleeding internally, has cancer, cirrhosis of the liver or an enlarged spleen or some rarer illness. My mum is the closest person in the world to me and I'm so scared something is really wrong with her.

The one person I normally would turn to is in basic training for the army so I can't talk to him. I just don't know what to do anymore.

Sorry, about your mom. I prayed about this situation.

Take one day at a time and surround yourself with inspirational friends. Maybe get involved at a charity and/or church. Keep your mind occupied. Feel free to email me for an online friend. Pray and read for spiritual strength.

1Pe 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.

1Pe 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you.

Ro 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

2Co 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

When Moses was standing at the edge of the Red Sea and turned back to the people, crying out for them to be calm... God said, "Why are you crying out to me, be still and know that I am God".

Read that again, and consider that whatever the problem, God is God and is within your heart.

Consider within your own heart what you should focus your heart on.

Should you focus it on praying that God heals your mother? Should you focus it on God helping you in your life? That God might ease your mother's pain? That God might remove these great difficulties behind you and in front of you -- as God did with Moses?


In such great darkness, we can only be still and know that God is within us.

If you call out, faithfully, as you have done here trusting God to be among Christians you do not even know, God will answer.

Your mom is FINE, so STOP mentioning all those sicknesses. Death and life are in the tongue and if you keep saying those things all your doing is decreeing sickness on her. You don't need to turn to anyone and the guy in training. Your job now is to thank God for this healing EVERYDAY till you see it manifest! No asking for healing, no need to pray about it 50x a day bcuz God heard you before you even said a word lol, simply just THANK God for healing her till it manifest. You have no idea how much you're loved, including your mom! To back this up, I don't remember the last time I've been sick and anytime a family memeber or friend gets ill...it's a matter of thanking God for the healing and God ALWAYS comes through. :)

**Tip:
What comes out of your mouth has GREAT power so you want a job? Simply ask ONCE for one and THANK God EVERDDAY till it manifest. To back it up I don't remember the last time I've struggled with money or a job infact God just payed off my tuition. Yes I love bragging about Him lol. God NEVER lies and He says there is power in what we say and He is willing to give us ALL our desires. It's a matter of ASK, THANKS, WAIT, THANKS, WAIT, THANKS lol
**Tip#2:
Use this waiting period to UNDERSTAND your father more and KNOW who you REALLY are :) and you know you're doing the right things if things begin to seem worse and if people come across your path to bring up your job and your mothers situation = simply the devil wanting you to SAY the wrong things. Just NEVER say she's sick and ALWAYS say God has ALREADY provided you a job...btw again your mom is healed! It seems weird I know lol and kinda very simple but God's ways are VERY different and simple enough for a child to understand lol :)

Enjoy your new job and make sure you let your mom know it's God that healed her. Not doctors but God!
