there's a man who found a pen on the floor,
curiously, he looked at the pen, it looks old but there's a lot of ink.
he wondered: why? why nobody wants this pen?
to dozens of people, the pen means nothing to them,
to some, they think that they can still buy a new pen if ever they lost one.

the man took this pen and he did many stuffs,
he used it and he scored a good result in his tests,
he used it and he drew out an excellent art piece.
if ever the pen runs out of ink, the man will never failed to re-fill the pen,
because this pen is very precious to him.
and that very pen, is the only pen in his pencil case, along with pencils, ruler etc.

people often asked him: why bother to keep on using that pen?
you can still try other good pens,
they can help you to score good marks and dre excellent art pieces, why bother to keep using it?
"NO, i will never change this pen, although other pens can be as good, but they will never be better than this pen," the man replied.
at this, people just walked away, speechless.

once, he lost this very precious pen, panicked, he keep on finding and finding,
he don't mind going home late, he don't mind giving up his time with his good friends,
he just simply don't mind.
He just want to find the pen, as long as he found it, he will just go.
when he really found it, he smiled, his heart was leaping with happiness, HE FINALLY FOUND HIS BELOVED PEN.
he treated this pen as precious as anything, even more than his great acheivements.

he keep on using this pen, re-fill whenever he should, and he used this very pen and create many wonderful stuffs.

perhaps you dint realise it, the pen is you, yes, YOU.
yes and the owner is God. people might look at you and say "You are just so useless!"
but God never think that you are useless, in fact, through Him, you can do great miracles.
God created so many things, but His heart was for His people. Why?
because, YOU are His BELOVED.
when you fall away from Him, God never ever give up for you,
He even give up His one and only son, Jesus to die for us.
JUST FOR YOU.
whenever you are discourage, sad, He's just there, encouraging you, filling you up.
Yes, God will never trade you with anything, not even gold or silver.
YOU AND I ARE PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT.
