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.

I do not see this as morbid.
1. I am not sure.
2. I just want tons of music, I want laughter. Tell my most embarassing stories!
3. Nothing mean or negative.

1.) She loved and was loved by her Lord and Savior.
2.) She worked quietly and unnoticed in the trenches, not seeking her glory but His.
3.) anything about any thing accomplished or done by me or anything in an effort to create an aura of 'good' about me.
I feel privileged to serve a sovereign God, creator, owner, maintainer of the universe! Its not about me! Its all about Him!

1. What do you want written on your tombstone?
I've never really given this much thought, truth be told. In all honesty, it really doesn't matter to me what it says. The tombstone is only for those left behind, and whatever would bring those that I love comfort, I guess that would be fine. If I had to choose something myself, offhand, I guess I'd have it quote Phil. 1:21: For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain, with a notation under it that says, "Truly living, at last!"
2. What do you want said at your funeral?
I don't want a funeral, I want a celebration of life. Seriously, I've talked about this very thing with my family, and when it comes to this, I don't want an open casket, just pictures and such. Actually, no casket, since I want to be cremated. I don't want any semblance to a traditional funeral. I want people to tell the funny things that they remember, the blessings of our relationships, etc. If people get emotional and sad, I want those that love me most to comfort them and be of good cheer to them.
Mostly, at this celebration of life, I want everyone present to hear the gospel, and I want them to know that I am truly not dead, but alive with the One who created me. Death is not any means of an end, but rather just a doorway that we all must pass through in order to have the fullest life imaginable.
I don't want much, eh?!
3. What don't you want said at your funeral?
That it's a funeral. It's to be a celebration of life, and I want people to see and hear that it is just that.
Good questions, actually...I had to stop and really think about the first and third one for a bit, though I already knew what I wanted for number 2.
Blessings, HITR

1. She's at HOME now
2. No matter how many people roll their eyes and say "not this again", PREACH about man's separation from GOD and their need to repent and believe on the LORD JESUS CHRIST!!!
3. MY! There are only 5 people here?
