Parable of the Pencil By Christie
The Pencil Maker took the pencil aside, just before putting
him into the box.
“There are 5 things you need to know,” he told the pencil,
“Before I send you out into the world. Always remember
them and never forget, and you will become the best pencil
you can be.”
“One: You will be able to do many great things, but only if
you allow yourself to be held in Someone’s hand.”
“Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to
time, but you’ll need it to become a better pencil.”
“Three: You will be able to correct any mistakes you might
make.”
“Four: The most important part of you will always be what’s
inside.”
“And Five: On every surface you are used on, you must leave
your mark. No matter what the condition, you must continue
to write.”
The pencil understood and promised to remember, and
went into the box with purpose in its heart.
Now replacing the place of the pencil with you. Always
remember them and never forget, and you will become the
best person you can be.
One: You will be able to do many great things, but only if
you allow yourself to be held in God’s hand. And allow other
human beings to access you for the many gifts you possess.
Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to
time, by going through various problems in life, but you’ll
need it to become a stronger person.
Three: You will be able to correct any mistakes you might
make.
Four: The most important part of you will always be what’s
on the inside.
And Five: On every surface you walk through, you must
leave your mark. No matter what the situation, you must
continue to do your duties.
Allow this parable on the pencil to encourage you to know
that you are a special person and only you can fulfill the
purpose to which you were born to accomplish. Never allow
yourself to get discouraged and think that your life is
insignificant and cannot make a change.
We are nothing but pencils in the hand of the creator. |

Nice exhortation. "We are nothing but pencils in the hands of our Creator" is a WRONG statement people often make. We are really SOMETHING in God's watch. |
