Parable of the Pencil

Here's the short and skinny or it.

Yesterday's devotional reading in the Baptist Bread, from Tim Green Ministries had an interesting parable about what the pencil maker told one of his pencils. Here is the short and skinny of it.

I challenge you, stop and think about how these principles that the pencil maker told the pencil, relate to you and how you live your life.

Are you allowing God to hold you? Do you grumble and complain more than showing gratitude? What kind of mark are you leaving on people? Is it a mark that inspires life and growth?

*Jot down a few notes or doodle your thoughts on these principles in your notebook, we will review these later*

Here is a great song of worship, that will help you to focus on his love for you. Allow yourself to be dependent upon Jesus. Ask him as you listen to this song to open up your heart to him. Ask him to lead you in the way that you should go.
