Oh no

The document tells a story about a pencil maker who shares five lessons with a pencil before sending it out into the world. The lessons are: 1) Allow yourself to be held and used by others. 2) Expect painful sharpenings to become better. 3) You can correct mistakes. 4) What's inside is most important. 5) Continue writing no matter the difficulty. The pencil promises to remember these lessons and do its best. Similarly, people were created by God for a purpose and can do great things by staying close to Him despite life's hardships.

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."
You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in Someone's hand.
You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but this is required if you are to become a better pencil.
You have the ability to correct any mistakes you might make.
The most important part of you will always be what's inside.
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.
Everyone of us is like the Pencil; we were commissioned by our Maker and become the best person we can be.
We can do many great things, as long as we hold on to God's hand. And share our God-given gifts and blessing with others.
As we go about our mission, we all experience trials, hardships and even more painful are the insults and humiliations despite our good intentions.
You and I have our own imperfections and make mistakes but our Maker wants us to learn our lessons and mature through from them.
The most important part of you will always be your feelings and thoughts of goodwill.
And everywhere we go, whomever we worked with, let us leave a “mark” people will remember us by. No matter what the situation, we must continue to serve our Maker in everything.
Everyone is like a pencil... created by the Maker for a unique and special purpose. May our journey in this life have a meaningful purpose in our heart and a relationship with God daily.
