  • 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.

What's on your mind?

What a weird twist of fate. I can't figure out if I should go with the offer I've already been given, and do something a bit different but kind of exciting, or continue to wait for the job which falls in line with what I've been doing for the last 8 years and probably more qualified for. To make matters worse I have been asked to let them know by the end of the day.

It's hard to believe this year is almost over. I can't wait for the new year to see what it brings. I hope that it takes me in a whole new direction and that a few prayers are answered.

Pray to God for guidance and blessings and then flip a coin.

Why work at a tea store when you can own it? Maybe it will be an option in the future if it is God's will. :)

Besides with the amount of tea you and I drink it would just be cheaper to own the store..... cause we would buy it anyway. :sput:

Why do I come here, its like trying to party at a morgue full of people who don't care for you. At least I still have my Icee's,

Ever tried using a corpse's dental structure to crack open a bottle of beer? It is rather difficult...

...Then there's having to be the designated driver using a hearse. Don't know how that will fly with many people...

I have slept in a cementary a couple of times and in reality its not even scarry.

Tonight's excitement is batteling a mouse I just seen in my bedroom. I put some food on a mousentrap and now I am waiting. I may mount the head if its big enough.

God is good.
He is.

Today I was talking to a psychiatrist. And he said to me, "you've lived a very hard life, for a long time." and he implied that I had some sort of right to be angry at the world. And I just told him... I said, God only does right. I don't ask God why he does what he does, because he has his reasons and his reasons are good, always.
The psychiatrist said to me "And you find peace in that?" seemingly dumbfounded. I replied "Yes."

Looked around the room... all eastern looking, words like peace, serenity, tranquility. Sand stress relievers, good lighting, water running, comfortable chairs...
Not one thing that said God or Christ (of course).

Y'all can have your sand... give me Jesus.

I knew of people who would drink near the cemeteries and pass out in the bushes. No shame whatsoever.

At work we get plenty of mice crawling around. They stink like mad when they die in the recycling.

You have great faith. For the longest time, I have felt nothing but anger and anxiety towards God. Still do sometimes but nowhere near as intense. You really are an inspiration.

Today God has given me an opportunity to do some volunteer work on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays while I'm out of work. It was all luck of the draw that I was present when this opportunity to serve.

God is indeed good. He does not want me to waste any time in serving him so he gives me options to better myself by being a blessing to others.

Why do you think people seem to find graveyards scary?

I think it's because people are afraid of death, and being around graveyards not only has people dwell on it more, but also have thoughts crop up that restless spirits might scare them.
