Instructions from the Maker

(I heard this message recently, and felt compelled to share it with you.)

The Maker looked at the pencil and instructed it on five important things:

  1. You will only be useful when you are in held in your Master’s hand.
  2. You are going to experience some painful sharpening from time to time, but if you don’t, you will lose your effectiveness.
  3. You are able to correct your mistakes. (All that has happened, all that you have done in your life, mercy has followed behind you!)
  4. The most important part of you is on the inside. It’s what’s inside of you that makes you useful and a blessing to others.
  5. Everywhere you go, you can leave a mark.  So give your very best.
