Parable of the Pencil




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 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 fulfil 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. Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD! Psalm 27:14 (NKJV)

Take Seven Times Daily

Seven times a day I praise you. Psalm 119:164 One day when missionary physician Harold Adolph was walking through his house, he saw a verse on the wall of his daughter’s room. It was Proverbs 17:22: “A cheerful heart is good medicine” (NIV). Adolph thought, “If only I could harness the secret of that cheerfulness and share it with my patients, a great deal of physical and spiritual suffering could be avoided.” Another verse came to mind—Psalm 119:164: “Seven times a day I praise You.” That verse, he thought, was like a prescription off a medicine bottle. Most patients resist taking a medicine seven times a day, which is why pharmaceutical companies develop pills to be taken only once or twice daily. But Dr. Adolph suggests we try the remedy exactly as God prescribed it. You might set your phone alarm to remind yourself to praise God seven times throughout this day. The goal isn’t legalism, but to learn to praise God continuously and to keep our hearts cheerful all day
