Life is a gift. And so you are.
PURPOSE
There is something good in you.
The most important part of the
pencil is the graphite inside,
because it serves its purpose.
The outside, could have dirt,
bite marks, chipped paint,
but that doesnt matter
as long as its inside is working.
Look at your inner purpose.
Look at your inner beauty.
PAIN
in order for a pencil to serve its purpose, it needs to be sharpened.
Like a pencil, our lives has to go through painful sharpening. If it doesnt go through pain, it wont be able to fulfill its purpose. We will experience painful sharpening from time to time and we must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows;
we will go through trials to test us, teach us, and train us to be better than we were before.
You need to be sharpened to live
CHANCES
In case of mistakes, the pencil uses its eraser. We are not perfect, in our lives we can use our own eraser to rub out any mistakes and move on from it. This eraser in our lives is what we called, FORGIVENESS. Learn to forgive yourself. Nobody is perfect. You have to process it, learn from it and then move on. This is the most powerful eraser that God gave us. Learn to use your eraser everyday.
You are provided with an eraser.
POWER
Remember, somebody is holding you
The pencil cannot do its purpose without anyone holding it. The pencil needs someone to hold it and guide each stroke. Someone uses his own hands for us to do great things. We must never forget that the Lord will always guide us according to His will. We need Him to hold us so we can fulfill our sacred purpose.
MARKS
You have to leave a mark
At the end of the day we should know that our purpose in this world will end. But there will be one thing you will leave behind. Something that other people will always remember about you gave them. And we have to make sure that we have prepared the necessary things in our lives to help those people that we will leave behind. Because we are not sure when will that time will happen.
How do you write your life now?
