  • 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 went walking with God, one fine day.
I talked with him, along the way.

I said...
"Forgive me Dear Lord, I've gone astray.
Please hear these words, to thee I pray. :pray:

I've chased after my dreams, and own earthly desires.
My heart for you, was no longer on fire.

Can you forgive me? :confused: I know you can.
But why would you want to, when from you I ran?

I looked for acceptence, from people you see. :(
Forgetting, only you, should be important to me.

Your spirit within me, I ask, will you renew?
Why should you want to, when from you I flew? :cry:

I wish you would show me, that I've been forgiven.
My life, for you, I want to be living.

I fear that I've strayed, too far away.
For you to forgive me, in any way."

Then my eyes spotted, something new.
Some flowers, were getting, ready to bloom.

These flowers, you see, should have been dead.
I never planted them, in any bed.

They sat out in the elements, two years in a row.
No soil around them, to help them grow.

God has renewed them, just for me.
This is something, he gave, so I could see.

How he can, and will, renew all things.
While bestowing upon us, his many blessings.
