The parable of the stone

Those who are distracted, stumble over them…

Bullies throw them.

Entrepreneurs use them to build things.

Tired from a hard day of work, the farmer uses it as a stool.

Some boys use them as toys.

Drummond wrote a poem about it.

David used it to kill Goliath; Michelangelo carved the most beautiful sculpture out of it…

Out of all of these examples, the stone wasn’t what made a difference; it was how the men chose to use them!

Every “stone” you come across in your life is an opportunity for personal growth.

Regardless of the size of the stones you come across in life, there isn’t one that you can’t use for spiritual growth. As for the stone that’s in your path right now, I’m sure God will give you the wisdom to overcome it. So that later on, you can look back and be proud of the wonderful experience you had and how it helped you grow spiritually.
