SET: Proverbs 27:17

Wow it has been ages since I have posted. Got a Facebook. It's addicting. Plus homework, dance, cello, mutual activities. Busy, busy, busy...

Anyway, I was lookin through last year's yearbook the other day. And I read a thing that a girl in my ward wrote. She's really amazing and way nice by the way. I love her to death. So she wrote about sitting by me on the bus, then she told me I was a "people sharpener" and said "see Proverbs 27:17." So that's what I did. I flipped open to that scripture, since my scriptures where sitting right there by me. And it saith:

"Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend."

That just really hit me and I've been thinking about it for a few days. In fact, I even put it in my status on Facebook yesterday.

What I got out of it was that I can help make other people better. It's really funny that this girl told me I was a people sharpener. Compared to her, I feel like I barely sharpen at all. I'm like one of the ones they have at school. You have to crank it and work at it for awhile before you get the sharp tip. She's like an amazing electric one. You just stick the pencil in and it's done way fast.

So people sharpening is something I could use work on. But I really do know that I can help people be their better selves. And I know that anyone can if they want to. But I also know that it can go the other way if you're not careful with the example you set.

In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
