  • 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.

:prayer:Heavenly Father, we glorify you this morning and thank you that you always hear our prayers and are concerned with our day-to-day lives. Caplio desires to move to another town and take a job which his parents may not approve of. He's afraid this may cause contention between him and his parents. Lord, you are wise in all things and I ask for your perfect will, that you bring Caplio to a place of trusting you concerning this matter, that he seeks and accepts your guildance. Give his parents peace in whatever decision you direct him in and let them know that it's your will for him. Thank you. In Jesus' name, Amen


Just wondering Caplio, is this job your parents have expected you to go into the family business? You obviously have a lot of respect for your parents whatever job it is because you're afraid of disappointing them. Please pray that the Lord will show you the best road to take. Explain your desires honestly to him in prayer but allow him the opportunity to show you his, as well.

Accepting God's will for your life can be hard at times because it may not be what we want at the time. But I can tell you through my own experience that doing the hard thing, telling the Lord that you will do things his way and not yours, will ultimately lead to more happiness and fulfillment in your life than if you had chosen your own road. You are a child of God, he is your Heavenly Father. Show him this kind of respect and you can never go wrong. :thumbsup:

God bless you and keep you no matter what decision you make.:hug:

Father, today is Your glorious day, and we lay it down before You. Lord, be with this young man, and guide him toward the right path. Father, that You bless his heart, and allow him to do Your work. Father, lead him into the right direction. Lord, that He may, instead of just listening to himself, but listen to You. Becuase, Your will is what we should really want,and not our own. Father, glory to Your name! In Jesus' Name, Amen. :prayer:

Father, I pray for Caplio, that he'll have the wisdom to see Your will for his life and that his family will as well, whether Your plan is for him to go to this other city, or whether it's for him to stay where he is. Open his eyes, Lord, and prepare him for the things You have in store.

Amen :amen:
