THE PENCIL PARABLE
In the beginning, the Pencil Maker spoke to the pencil saying,
"There are five things you need to know before I send you out into the
world. Always remember them and you will become the best pencil you can
be."
First: You
will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held
in Someone's hand.
Second: You will experience a
painful sharpening from time to time, but this is required if you are to become
a better pencil.
Third: You have the ability
to correct any mistakes you might make. 
Fourth: The most important part
of you will always be what's inside.
Fifth: No matter what the
condition, you must continue to write. You must always leave a clear, legible
mark no matter how difficult the situation.
The pencil understood, promising to remember, and went
into the box fully understanding its Maker's purpose.
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, but you'll need it to become a stronger person
Three: You will be able to correct mistakes you might make or grow through
them.
Four: The most important part of you will always be what's on the inside.
And Five: On every surface you
walk, you must leave your mark. No matter what the situation, you must continue
to serve God in everything.
Everyone is like a pencil...
created by the Maker for a unique and special purpose.
