Conversation between Pencil and Eraser

Pencil: I'm sorry

Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry cos you get hurt bcos of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one, I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad. :)


This conversation between the pencil and the eraser is very inspirational. Parents are the eraser whereas their children are the pencil. They're always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way... they get hurt, and become smaller (older, and eventually pass on). Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying, or sad.

"All my life, I've been the pencil.. And it pains me to see the eraser that is my parents getting smaller and smaller each day. For I know that one day, all that I'm left with would be eraser shavings and memories of what I used to have..."

This is to all the parents and children out there...

Jesus Teaches About Praying

Jesus went up on a mountainside and sat down.
His disciples came to him.
Then he began to teach them.

He said, "This is how you should pray.
Our Father in heaven, may your name be honored.
May your kingdom come.
May what you want to happen be done on earth as it is done in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins, just as we also have forgiven those who sin against us.
Keep us from sin when we are tempted.
Save us from the evil one."

- Matthew 5 to 6 (Read With Me Bible) -

A Psalm for Giving Thanks

Shout to the Lord with joy, everyone on earth
Worship the Lord with gladness
Come to him with songs of joy

I want you to realize that the Lord is God
He made us, and we belong to him

We are his people
We are the sheep belonging to his flock

Give thanks as you enter the gates of his temple
Give praise as you enter its courtyards
Give thanks to him and praise his name

The Lord is good
His faithful love continues forever
It will last for all time to come

- Psalm 100 -
