DAY 7 — THE BROKEN PENCIL

“God Never Discards You — He Reshapes You”

In a busy classroom, a frustrated student pressed too hard on her pencil and snapped it in half.
The graphite split, the wood cracked, and she cried out,
“Now it’s useless!”

Expecting her teacher to be annoyed,
she held out the broken pencil apologetically.

But the teacher didn’t scold her.
He simply walked to the sharpener,
placed the broken half inside,
and gently turned the handle.

A fresh point emerged — new, sharp, ready.
He handed it back and said,
“It’s not useless.
It just needed a new point.”

The girl smiled.
A broken pencil had become a new beginning.


So often we look at our mistakes
and conclude we are beyond repair.
We tell ourselves:
“I failed — I’m done.”
“I sinned again — I’m hopeless.”
“I broke something — God won’t use me.”

But God is a teacher who refuses to throw you away.
When life snaps you in half,
He doesn’t discard you —
He reshapes you.

Your brokenness is not your ending;
it is the beginning of a deeper grace.
Lent is the season of sharpening:
of letting God refine your intentions,
purify your desires,
and shape your weaknesses
into wisdom.

Broken pencils still write.
And broken hearts still love.
And broken sinners still become saints.
