[gabbyk]

[""]

I'm happy to pray for you, dear. I will let the CF Angels know that you need prayer, and I will also alert our CF Prayer Team to your need. :hug:

[gabbyk]

[believer4God]

:hug:s and :pray:ers for gabbyk!

[EmbracingHim]

Prayers GabbyK. I was in an auto accident and have had heachaches as well -- so I feel what you are going through.

May the Lord heal you completely and fully and may your headaches dissapear sweety.

God bless.

I do hope that gabbyk will stop by again and let us know how she is doing. :) Thank you angels for reaching out to her.

[gabbyk]

Well, I kind of had a lot of problems yesterday, every time sunday morning I'd get up, I felt like mabey I could faint, upset stomach, and my heart would thump hard. I also would get weak feeling, today I am so tired, with some heart skips. I really don't know whats up and if things continue the way they are I may have to go to my dr.

[""]

I'm praying for you gabbyk. Please do consider going to your doctor. You may be having a problem with your blood pressure, or perhaps you have a bad case of the flu. In either case, what you are describing about your heart skipping, is not normal. Do seek medical help, dear. :hug:

[gabbyk]

Well, with the prayers, and a little trick I remembered, holding my breath till my chest felt pressure, the heart skips arent as intense, I am also trying to keep up fluid intake, my energy is still low, but I am thinking more on the lines of a flu . Please keep me in your prayers, I am concerned, I think as anyone would

[gabbyk]

:hug:'s thanks Gwen, and because you all have prayed for me, and more fluids, which I drank water yesterday, and about 5 glasses today, my heart is a lot happier, mostly beating back to normal, and I have more energy today. I believe I was dehydrated, more than likely.

Is there problems with any other people automatically getting logged off? It's happening to me, I have to at times log back in after refreshing

[believer4God]

Yes, after a certain amount of time not being active, it automatically logs you out.

[gabbyk]

ahh mine logs me out after like a few seconds, and I am usually active. I guess I will have to deal with it

[Gwenyfur]

my log off quit messing with me after I started checking the "remember me" box...after that no more time outs...

just a thought..

I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better :)
Praise Abba!

[Savedthroughfaith]

Prayer request - Good morning. My Aunt had a heart attack. She is in the hospital. Apparently her heart stopped for 5 minutes. They were able to bring her back, but are unsure if she will have neurological damage because it had stopped for so long. Please pray for her. THANKS.

Sorry not to have seen this over the weekend gabbyk. Many of us spent the weekend doing things away from the computer, but I am praying for you again gabbyk. :prayer: Let me know how you are dear.

[Kellylaine]

I am having a really rotten day ! I am grumpy, tired, and just plain annoyed with everything . I wish I didnt feel this way, I guess everyone has their bad days, mine has been bad for like the last three. I don't know why really I am posting this, probably because I need someone to pray for me, and a friend.

[gabbyk]

Adiya, I am doing better now, just wanted to let you know ! With medicine, muscle spasms got better, and the other problem cleared up too

[""]

I'm so glad to know that Gabby. :hug:

I hope we get to see you here more often. I like when you peek in and greet us with your lovely self. :)

God bless you!

Hello there :wave:
I have received your PM and you will be hearing from somebody shortly.

[college4christ81]

Thank you but I still have a few questions. But I couldn't find answer as to whether or not there is a requirement of how many hours you must be on CF while you are an CF angel?

[""]

You must spend at least an hour a day doing CF Angel work, in order to be a CF Angel. Sundays are excluded, as they are the day of rest, unless you're a seventh day adventist, in which case, your day of rest is Saturday.

[college4christ81]

Ok cool.

[Alegría]

I am in need of prayer right now. I am pregnant with my first child, and my doctor told me on my last visit that I might lose my precious little peanut. :cry: I went through two ultrasounds, and blood tests. I calculated myself at 8 weeks, but the tests showed I was only at 6 weeks. My doctor says she wants to monitor me and my little one, but she also told me to prepare for the worst. :cry:

Please pray that my little peanut is safe and arrives in October ... happy and healthy! God Bless!

I am new to this site and I do need help finding my way around it...

I am guessing I can really post comments anywhere but where do I go to read all the posts that people have written...and how do I post a comment in that same place..or do I need to have 5 posts before I can do that?

I have PM'd both of them earlier, but because I was sick I hadn't recorded anything here. Sorry about that.

Many of us PM'd you and/or signed your guestbook, instructing you to PM us if you needed anything, on the same day you posted this, which I think helped you a lot. :)

I think you seem to understand now how to post, but just in case you do need a little help again, but from what I understand you were asking about PMing back to those of us who PM'd you. Now that you do have enough posts, I think the issue has resolved itself, but do PM me if I can help further.

[LALaurie]

I need help!!!! I am really about to lose my mind. I feel like I am crawling out of my skin, I am on edge about everything. I went to the doctor and they changed my meds and gave me Xanax. So far it isn't helping.

Oh Laurie, I'm sorry hun. Have you talked to your doctor, minister/priest, counselor about any of this? Do you have a parent or a friend who can help you with your child right now?

I'm going to PM you and see what we can do to help. :hug:

[Savedthroughfaith]

Hi everyone.

Can you guys PLEASE pray for me and my family. And our church. There are some serious things happening there and satan is attacking us...everyone in our church. My husband and I are praying for a decision on whether or not we should stay there and could really use some prayers.

Thanks! *hugs*

[""]

Oh Heavenly Father, I lift up our dear sister here, who has asked for prayer over her family and their church. I bind the enemy in the name of Jesus, from attacking that church any more. I pray that precious blood of Christ over each and every member of that church, for protection, and I say "enemy of God, depart! you must leave that church and cease attacking all who are within it's folds." G-ds word says that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, in Isaiah 54 verse 17, and I claim that scripture over this dear woman's church. Jesus has set them free, and you cannot chain freedom down. In His name, AMEN!

:prayer:

Thank you, sweetie. :hug:

[LittleChoLo]

I'm new to this forum, so I don't know where everything is, but I need help.

Over the dinner table, my athiest Dad started to fire questions at me about my faith - all of the general hot potato debate topics. When I say 'fire', I mean ask. My faith "scares the hell out of [him]", he says. But all I could give him were feeble responses which sounded like a ridiculous, made-up fairytale - and when given a resumé as farfetched-sounding as I gave him, it's no wonder that people won't believe. As I was saying these things, they sounded absurd even to me, to think about it all. The best I could tell him to most of the questions was "I don't know. We can't comprehend God without having faith; we are not of the same realm or substance." That was all I could say. He was presenting many very valid arguments; many backed up with evidence, and yet I couldn't respond to them.

I feel as if my faith has taken a huge blow. I'm beginning to question whether I believe at all - all of those little doubts which I had pushed aside are crawling up to the surface, and I feel trapped. There would be so many things I would be able to do if God was not pointing his finger at me. I could be an opera singer, as everyone tells me I have the talent I have to be one. I could be a novelist, or I could devote my life to music and theatre; do what everyone seems to tell me I was born to do. I want God to be real. I want Jesus to be alive. But everything seems to juxtapose him. Please help me. God is my crutch, and clinging to Christianity seems to help me hold onto my sanity to escape my obsessive idolatry issues. But is that all? Can't it be True? I need that crutch of God, and I want it to be real. I want to accept Jesus. I want to be able to give up that operatic aspiration - it'll most likely kill my faith altogether if I adopt the theatrical life. I need my faith restored. I need to be encouraged.

hello,
um, just wondering if you guys had any advice on letting go of a certain habit.It's not necissarily a bad habit, it's got it's advantages and disadvantages.

It's something i've been doing for a long time, and have stopped for 2 days now. But i've been feeling more down than usual :( I miss the people i used to talk to!

My advice is to pray, Justina. Pray and ask your Heavenly Father to show you if something is wrong for you. Ask Him to help you be strong, to turn away from the temptation to do, whatever it is. Spend time reading your bible hun, because you will find so much strength in it. Get together with friends at church for youth groups, and church groups, or sleep overs. Make new friends at church and if you can't find any at the church you go to now, ask if you can attend a youth group at another church. :)

Also, stay in touch with us here. Keep busy doing the Lord's work and staying close to Him, and you will find it much easier to turn away from a bad habit.

Bless you.

Let me know how this is going, both of you. Send me a PM, and let me know if you'd like me to participate, or be a part of the discussion. If you need my help or my input, I am here for you and would love to help.

In the mean time I offer my prayers and I also support Rut's post, where she mentioned the Christian Advice forum. You will find many uplifting Christians who post there that would help you and offer prayers/advice, as well.

I'm new to this forum, so I don't know where everything is, but I need help.

Welcome here. I'm sure the help that you seek will be given. :hug:

My faith "scares the hell out of [him]", he says. But all I could give him were feeble responses which sounded like a ridiculous, made-up fairytale - and when given a resumé as farfetched-sounding as I gave him, it's no wonder that people won't believe.

He was presenting many very valid arguments; many backed up with evidence, and yet I couldn't respond to them.

You are right, one must have faith in order to accept God. But there is evidence. I look at the trees and the flowers. I look at the weather and the earth. I look at our own bodies in how they work.

I know that science "thinks" they have the answers to creation, but the truth is, they don't. Only God could create us.

I think about how our body has it's own immune system and how each part of our body has nerves that all connect together. Our body is very intricate and complicated. It's amazing how our eyes work.

That is evidence of a creator and we call the creator God.

Now trying to prove Christianity can be difficult because only the Holy Spirit can reach and convict the heart and soul of each one of us. God gave us freewill so that we can decide to love Him and follow Him and accept the gift of salvation through His Son, Jesus.

All we can do is pray for those who do not believe. But that doesn't help the questions that were thrown at you and now you are wondering all kinds of things. Please ask those questions. If not here, then in a pm to me or Adiya or another Christian that has been helpful to you.

I'm not good at debate myself. And sometimes people will ask me stuff about my faith and I've said the same thing that you have said... I don't know, but I'll find out. That is all we can do. Some are called to be teachers, some are called to be preachers, some are called to be deacons... or other various ministries. Not all of us are called to debate. I'm not called to debate.

We show Christ in us by how we love and care and cherish each other. That is a start.


I feel as if my faith has taken a huge blow. I'm beginning to question whether I believe at all - all of those little doubts which I had pushed aside are crawling up to the surface, and I feel trapped. There would be so many things I would be able to do if God was not pointing his finger at me. I could be an opera singer, as everyone tells me I have the talent I have to be one.

After having a discussion like that, it's normal that you start to wonder about things. My faith would be shaken too. Peter's faith was shaken enough to the point that he denied Jesus 3 times. Jesus even forewarned him that he would do it too. And Peter spent time with Jesus and witnessed all of the miracles.

My point is this, that we all have moments of doubt and we all struggle at one time or another with our faith, all we can do is pray and ask God to help us through it.

Jesus will show you that He is real and He is there. Ask Him to. When I was 13, I had a similar experience, not with my dad, but with someone that was dear to me.

He asked me all kinds of questions and I felt horrible that I couldn't answer his questions. I, too, started to doubt if there was a God, then let alone, Jesus.

So, I prayed and I asked Jesus to touch me, to show me that he was there. My heart was breaking and all I had was Jesus in my life. He was my only hope, my friend, my protector and savior. When I reached up my hands, I felt something in my palm. It was like my palm was touched. When I felt my palm, there was moisture on the palm of my hand. My other palm didn't have moisture and no, we didn't have a leak in the ceiling. Jesus revealed to me that He was truly real. I'm not saying that He goes around doing this... but I do believe that if you sincerely seek through prayer, ask sincerely through prayer, knock at the door, sincerely through prayer... Jesus will reveal Himself to you in a very real way to you. It takes faith, but we do have evidence. It's the hope and faith within our heart and the small every day miracles that happen.

I'm here for you. You are in my prayers hon.

Also, regarding being an opera singer or an actor, working in the theatre or writing a novel. You can do all of that and still belong to Jesus. Jesus doesn't hold us back on our dreams, He helps us to fulfill the potential we were blessed with. Every part of the world needs to see the light of Jesus. There are great Christians who are opera singers and actors and those who work in the theatre and write great books.

C.S. Lewis was one. Chesterton was another. Tolkien was also a Christian. As far as actors...there were and are many good Christians who are actors. Yes, that kind of business has a lot of temptation, but that kind of business needs to see the light of Jesus shining through those who are Christians in that industry. The point is that, Jesus doesn't hold us back from our dreams, He helps us fulfill those dreams with His love and guidance and courage and strength.

God Bless,

Debbie

i need help

hi i luv u

[Rut]

i need help

What do you need help with?

[Justina]

ok just a quick lil thing i was hoping to get advice on.
Lately, i've been having these really weird thoughts. Whenever i'm annoyed at myself, i imagine all these situations where i deliberately cause myself harm. Like serious stuff, sometimes even suicide.
They happen whenever i'm after i know i've sinned against god, or after i done something i know i shouldn't have or even just when i'm upset.
I've ignored it for a while, i thought i was just being an idiot, but lately they've just been getting more gruesome, and they're really starting to scare me. Why am i getting these thoughts, and how can i stop them?!?

Prayer...

I know it sounds like a trite answer, but prayer truly does work. I know a few people who have struggled with this over the years and they each tell me the same thing...they pray their way through it.

One would read 1John every time those thoughts started coming into her head. She told me that the scriptures dealign wtih G-d's promised forgiveness helped her a lot...maybe it will you too :hug:

I'll be praying for you and if you want to talk, my PM box is always open :hug:

Hi Justina :hug:

First, I want you to know that you are not alone. These kinds of things happen to many people, and it's important to know that these thoughts may be caused by a number of things, some of which are the following:

1. spiritual attack
2. chemical imbalance
3. hormones
4. environmental

These are just some of the things that can cause us to feel very depressed and to think of harming ourselves. It's important to remember that you are a cherished beautiful creation and that your Heavenly Father does not want you to harm yourself. When we sin, we can go to the Father and ask for forgiveness. He is merciful and just, and will forgive when we have a repentant heart, my friend. The enemy of G-d, satan, likes to mock us and accuse us before G-d and before ourselves. So it is possible that these feelings are spiritual.

There will be more CF Angels here later today to talk to you and befriend you, but until then I would like to advise you to do the following:

1. Talk to your parents. I know it's a hard thing to admit when you need help, and can even feel embarassing but your parents would rather you tell them that you're having these problems, so they can help you.

2. Talk to your minister/priest.

3. Have your parents make you an appointment to see a doctor just in case you're having symptoms of a chemical imbalance that could be helped with medication. Your doctor, your parents, and you will make that decision. God uses doctor's to help us too. Depression can be clinical, in which case it is a disease just like any other (think of cancer, diabetes, etc), and medication helps.

In the mean time dear one, I am praying for you. :prayer: Your Heavenly Father knows you and see's what you are going through. Your Savior, Jesus is taking our prayers to the Father and you will not be alone in this struggle. Remember that you can use scripture to battle things of the spirit. Here are some verses for you. Pray them to G-d, over yourself, for protection.

Why are you downcast, O my soul?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and 6 my God. Psalm 42:5

The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. Psalm 34:7

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Isaiah 54:17

hi i luv u

We love you too dear. I have PM'd you so hopefully we will find out what you needed. You haven't responded to us in here.

[Justina]

Thank you so very much for the advice Gweny and Adiya. I will try to pray more and ask for guidence from god. Those verses are beautiful thank you.
I don't know if i'm ready to talk to anyone about this yet - as in parents or even friends - i don't know, i just can't, i don't really have a close relationship with my parents.
Also, about how you suggested i may be going through depression, i don't know about that either, see the thing is, i don't feel depressed that often, i get these thoughts when i'm embarressed, or stressed and stuff like that, does that count as depression or a chemical imbalance or whatever? i don't know, man, i'm confused.....

But thanks again guys, i really appreciate it

[gabbyk]

Hello, A random member came to me asking for help with her friend who sounded really depressed. I "casually " struck up a friendship with this gal in need. Her id is AG. She is very depressed, and in serious need of prayer... I am getting her to open up to me, but I am Bipoler, so In this situation, it is to my advantage, as she sees I really can relate to saddness.. Please don't tell AG that I posted this, but pray for her, and keep a close watch over her especially tomorrow. She is really beating herself up with negitive self talk. She kind of feels life is not worth living, but feels suicide is selfish, thank the Lord!!! She at this point has RIP AG 7/7/7 under her user name. I am PMing with her, and I am givnig her encouragment, and I think godly advice, like God made you, and He dosen't make mistakes, it easy to ask for the Lord's forgivenes, but its hard to actually accept it, that kind of thing. Please do what you can for her, she is hurting! When I go off line soon, I will be on my knees in prayer over AG and her friend the one who contacted me... AG dosn't know her friend contacted me... I think its best that way, so she feels I am scincer, which I honestly am...
