  • 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.

Will it ever end?

I don't really know where to start... It's just a long story.. but oh well. My parents are in the process of a Divorce. And it has been a very stress-filled and hard year. My dad has a girl-friend and she and her 3 sons are living with him and I wasn't supposed to be spending the night with my dad with them there. Well I did anyways because I love them they are becoming my friends... now I will never accept them as part of my core family but they are part of God's family and I'm not going to just pretend like they're not there, but it's like that's what my mom is suggesting... and I understand that she is hurt about it and can't accept my dad's girfriend but that still doesn't mean I shouldn't love her too. I mean it's not like I can just look them over and act like they're not there and never will be. Anyway, we found out that my dad hasn't been paying the house payment and so they suing us for the money in full or hey take the house... and then my mom found out yesterday about me spending time with my dad and his girlfriend and then spending the night there.. and all of that.. and everything is just falling apart.. and she's saying that I told her that I never wanted to be around my dad's g/f which I never said that and so she's been "fighting" to keep me away from them.. I do th opposite and all this crazy stuff.... It just feels like my world is falling apart... because my friendships are in the process of falling apart, my family has fallen apart, I don't know what's next I guess my life.. but it's getting there... Please I ask you please pray for my family, please pray that we won't get kicked out of our house... because that's my main concern... I'm really afraid. Satan has really attacked us and he's got a hold on my brother, and father. Now he just wants to take us all down. Please... pray for us.. and please supply any advice you might have for me.. any comfort... anything at all.. Thank You.

I am praying for you and your family. I pray that you do not lose your house. God will provide.

I come from a split family. I can relate to all that you said. My mother still has issues to this day about me being friends with my dad's girlfriend and her daughters. I know it is tough to talk to your mother regarding your feelings. I finally told my mother one day that she can't make me choose between her and my father & his new family. She would always be my mother. No one would ever take her place, ever. I needed my father and I wanted to be friends with his girlfriend. My mother finally was a little better about it, even though she still has a issues with it. Although now she doesn't pressure me so bad about it. Getting older helps. My mother knows now that she can't tell me what to do anymore, so I make my own decisions. And in regards to seeing my dad and his girlfriend, I go and spend time with them. One suggestion, if I may, don't act like your dad's girlfriend & her kids aren't there. It's your decision if you want to be friends with them. Your mother will understand in time. If you do ignore them, it will probably just put a strain on your relationship with your father, let alone his girlfriend & kids. Just a suggestion.

I will continue to keep you in my prayers. May God richly bless your life and grant you peace.

God Bless,
Charity

Dear God:

i pray dear God, for mystic and her family... all of them...
it is so hard to see the people you love so hurt. and mystic is so young to have to deal w/all this adult drama, and adult wrongs. i pray you show mystic's mother how wrong it is not to see her sin for what it is. i pray that she recognize her responsibility in this.. i pray that she not use mystic's dad as an excuse any longer, to justify her wrong.

i pray for mystic's dad.. he has hurt everyone so much. i know he didn't think of it like that. i know he just wanted to be where he thought he was getting his wants and needs met. but it doesn't excuse the hurt and the pain that he put his wife and children thru..

i pray for the children, who are true victims of these adults wrongs.. i ask you why you do this Lord?? but then i know, that adults seeing the pain of their children makes them think...but God, please help these parents.. please get them to stop pointing fingers at each other, and start to care about how much this all hurts you, and how much this all displeases you..

please be w/mystic. please give her wisdom and knowledge and courage and strength thru all this.. please help mystic as she learns how and when the best way to reveal her hurt and pain, w/out hurting others... please help her to forgive in your holy and godly way, and not in a worldly way. please help her as she works hard at maintaining a loving relationship w/both her parents.
take away mystic's hurt, anger, bitterness, betrayal, at both her parents. we know you gave her this anger she must feel right now. and you gave it to her to learn from at a young age. we know you have great things in store for her. we pray you teach her how to control her actions in this horrible time for her.

we love you so much God. we pray you deliver her from her hurt and anger. in Jesus' name we pray: amen.
