• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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?

Sometimes I don’t understand God at times
You know by now he has your back, working all things for your good. It's hard though I know... I'm asking my "why's" at the moment too. Just have to trust and wait patiently.

Sorry to hear you're in rough times too.

It's hard for us to understand God because we are only human beings, and His ways are often unfathomable to us. But no matter what, He cares about each one of us so much, and everything He does works out for our own good somehow, even if it may not make sense to us now. One day we may know why He allowed everything to happen the way it did; but for now all we can do is trust in Him, try to be patient, and do our best to do His will. (That's not easy, I know, but we can do it with His help.)

I eventually came to decide once and for all, after being healed from my terrible sickness six years ago, that if we cannot have faith in what you just said above, Miss Multi, then there's no point in having faith at all.:angel:

This is great advice and I love it.

Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of Spongebob Squarepants, has passed away. :(
Really? He couldn't have been that old. Looks like the creation outlived the creator.

Another great creator gone. I discovered Spongebob in the early 2000s and then the memes it inspired, in the 2010s, which inspired my avatars. Spongebob is one of the funniest and best cartoons ever created. Thank you for the laughs.

I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I saw my first episode in 1999. I was eating Micheal Owen's "Sporties" cereal, about to get into my school uniform on a particularly overcast day.

About an hour before, I was watching Joe 90.

What did I do five minutes ago though? I don't know, I can't remember.

Preparing for Christmas.
Ah, yes I suppose I should do that too. Get my Charlie Brown tree up... although I'm in a new place this year so I wonder if they allow real trees in this apartment :evergreen::evergreen: No car to get it but I'd drag that sucker home with a smile on my face.
