  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The biggest part for me is waiting on God and being obedient to do what He tells me to do at any given time. The breakthru will come in His timing based on this. My biggest potential handicap is my mental health. But as long as I stay on my medication this really isn't a worry. The thing that's holding me back from being in a better place (as far as bigger vision and accomplishments go is finances) But that's going to change soon.

Health - Mental health is key for me. I'm in good shape otherwise.
Mindset - I stay in a positive attitude. Despite seasons of depression, I keep my face on God.
Communication - I keep a close circle of Christians that I dialogue with. In fact, I'm going to contact two of them soon to bounce a couple of concerns off of.
Emotions - Emotions are good. But they used to throw me way off. Until I realized the proper order of 1. Truth 2. Faith 3. Obedience, I got myself in trouble. Before I used to be led by my emotion but the Lord corrected this in me.
Lack of support - Not really an issue for me. God is my provider and the basics involved with this are taken care of. (family, friends, etc.)

Recently, I found out that to properly code and launch one of the startups I have in mind will cost 250k - 500k. This is completely out of my range. But one positive outlook I keep regarding this is that since it's something I cannot do myself (and it's an idea that He gave me) then there's no way anyone will get the credit and glory when the door opens to do it.
