Shape and Sharpen

Read Psalm 127:4

(4) Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth.* Psalm 127:4

“Like arrows in the hands of a warrior…”

That’s the picture.

Not control.
Not perfection.

Preparation.

Arrows don’t shape themselves.

They take time.
Attention.
Intentional effort.

And in the same way, God has entrusted you with influence.

Whether you’re a parent…a grandparent…a mentor…a leader…

You are helping shape someone.
