My instrument

Share a fiction with you:
老樵夫因年紀太大,無力再每天到樹林砍樹。所以,老樵夫的兒子便開始承繼他的事業。兒子好努力,第一個月砍樹40棵,老樵夫知道感到安慰,亦讚賞兒子的能力。兒子一個月比一個月努力,可是砍樹的數目卻一個月比一個月少。兒子沮喪地走到父親面前想要放棄,老樵夫問了兒子一句:「你有把斧頭打磨過嗎?」
繁忙既香港人,唔知幾時停低過,來打磨自己的工具、自己的生命呢?休息唔係等於息機,只是recharge吧!

Found this in the life application bible.
"God often uses simple, ordinary objects to accomplish his tasks in the world. It is important only that they be dedicated to him for his use. What do you have that God can use? Anything and everything is a possible "instrument" for him."

"five loaves and two fish" to feed a crowd of over 5,000
"small stone" to kill Goliath
"trumpets" to flatten the walls of Jericho

我的instrument ready 好被神用未呢?
