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.

Third day this week I've had a headache...though thankfully it's not a migraine....
I have a lot to do this weekend and headaches would just add junk to that
So if you wouldn't mind praying,I would appreciate it
I know that's silly

Lately I've been praying to God to give me opportunities to give things to people. It was this morning or yesterday, however, that I asked God to reveal sin in my life. Tonight I started looking at my reps. Those that I've received and given. There was a significant difference between the type of comments that I have been given and those that I given to others. I don't rep often, but the times I have given rep (according to my CF history), the comments have not been Christ-like. To be as honest as I can be, some of them are downright mean-spirited. That's not what this place is for.
Then I started thinking about verse 12, chapter 3, of the gospel of John. I won't post the verse, but I will just say this: If I'm asking the Lord to give me the means to give big things to people, how can I do that when I'm not even doing the lowliness of giving such as typing out a positive comment to people I don't even know on a message board? I know this is probably the tip of the iceberg, and more sin probably spills over in my real world life concerning this, but I'm asking for you all to forgive me for my nastiness, etc. You know who you are if this applies to you. Secondly, I'm asking for those who will, pray that God will give grace and mercy to continue working on me in order to shape me to be the person He wants me to be.

Very insightful Trent, and I completely agree. God will bless us with "bigger" things/requests when can show proof of being able to handle the smaller issues. Very proud of you for putting this out there.
James 3: 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
James 5: 16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed, the effectual fervent prayer of righteous man availeth much.

alright i know that this is the second post i've made in a short time, but i'm going to make it anyway.
one of the member's at the church i go to has a son who was diagnosed with fourth stage colon cancer. he's dying. he and his wife came forward today for prayer. this morning, it looked like they have 4 or five children, possibly more. (i didn't count all of them) just remember them in prayer when you read this.
