• 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.

  • 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.

Sometimes in our lives we have days when we are not as chipper as we normally are. We don’t feel well, or someone has done something to us to hurt us, or things are just generally going bad for us. So, we may begin to focus on the negative rather than on the positive. Thus we can’t see the “Son-light” because the clouds of darkness are blocking our view.

During those times, though, we need to counsel ourselves by putting on our spiritual armor with which to fight off Satan’s evil schemes against us, and with which to fight off any feelings of discouragement or hopelessness which might be haunting us. We need to put off the lies and put on the truth, and rather than wallowing in self-pity, we need to put our hope in God, and trust Him with our lives. Amen!

His Song is with Me

An Original Work / September 9, 2018
Based off Psalm 42


Why downcast?
Why downcast is
My soul within me?
Put your hope in God.

For I will yet praise Him,
My Savior and my God.
My soul thirsts for God.
Where can I meet Him?

Why downcast?
Why downcast is
My soul within me?
Put your hope in God.

My tears have;
My tears have been
My food by day and by night.
“Where is God?”

I say to God, my Rock,
“Why have You forgotten me?
For, I’m burdened
By the enemy.”

My tears have;
My tears have been
My food by day and by night.
“Where is God?”

Why downcast?
Why downcast is
My soul within me?
Put your hope in God.

By day the Lord commands
His lovingkindness and
His song is with me at night,
Praise to Him.

Why downcast?
Why downcast is
My soul within me?
Put your hope in God.
