• 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.

Today stinks.

Well Covid-19 hit our company today.
Not the virus itself, but the downturn in the economy.
They let a larfe chunk of development go today, I was one of them.

In reality, I know I'll be fine, bills can be paid for most of the year. And jobs are still good for my field.
It just stink to be dealing with this today.

Vent over.

Hello @pgp_protector, I'm glad to hear that you'll be fine for the foreseeable future, PTL, but very sorry to hear that you've been laid off from your job! What a bummer this pandemic is in so many ways :(

If there's a bright-side to the pandemic for us Christians, it has certainly given us new opportunities to deepen our faith in/trust in the Lord, and in His daily provision for us, as well helping others to do the same .. e.g. Isaiah 41:10; Jeremiah 29:11; Romans 8:28 :)

Praying for you!

God bless you!

--David
