  • 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

It was a gift
More expensive than most
Arranged by someone who cared
Only for me
For no one but me
To be selfish and not to be shared

It was a gift
Soon a close friend
There through the pain and the tears
Solace for my heart
Comfort for my soul
A companion by my side through the years.

It was a gift
Six strings and some wood
Its music and song was mine
Crying my sorrow
Singing my joy
A history lost in time.

It was the gift
That freed the child
Trapped in a rusty old cell
It gave me a voice
It taught me to sing
My key to escape from hell

Beautifully put together! :sparkles:

Yet, it shouldn't be only used for yourself, but using it for the Lord. Everything He has given us, is meant to being given back to Him!

So when you got this guitar given to you, it was also given from God. As it is a gift and blessing given from Him to you, and your joy should be set on worshipping Him with it! Giving Him all glory! :heart:
