Eclectic: Jackie - This Is a Sweet One - Pencils!

Jackie - SSTattler
I would imagine that they had moments where the graphite broke and they had to start all over again. -- Jackie

Be Sure to Read the Parable:

A pencil maker told the pencil. Five important lessons just before putting it in the box:

  1. Everything you do will always leave a mark.
  2. You can always correct the mistakes you make.
  3. What is important is what is inside of you.
  4. In life, you will undergo painful sharpening, which will only make you better.
  5. To be the best pencil, you must allow yourself to be held and guided by the hand that holds you. 

We all need to be constantly sharpened. This parable may encourage you to know that you are a special person, with unique God-given talents and abilities. Only you can fulfill the purpose which you were born to accomplish.

Never allow yourself to get discouraged and think that your life is insignificant and cannot be changed and, like the pencil, always remember that the most important part of who you are, is what's inside of you.
