  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

There are hearts everywhere. The sale ads for the stores are red and filled with items that would make perfect gifts for your sweetie.
The store shelves are stocked with heart shaped boxes of chocolate.
The TV and radio are filled with stories of romantic fairy tail love stories. It is a mushy, gushy sort of day. Even the children get into the holiday spirit all over the country. Classes are having parties where the children exchange valentines with their friends. It is showing that you care how much you love them.

Unfortunately, Valintine's Day is not a joy to everyone. Since the world has focused on the romantic atmosphere, those who are single find it a difficult day.
Others are more interested in the gifts they receive than in the people who give it. Many of the gifts given on this day are out of a sense of duty or because it is expected rather than for love. Other gifts are given with the expectation of something in return.

As you share your love on this day with those who are your valentine, remember that love is from God and our love should mirror that which He first gave us.
Do not seek the things of this world, like candy and flowers. Rather, seek to know the Lord Jesus Christ in the midst of your relationships. Everything else will pass away, but love endures forever. :amen:
