Chances are, it’s been a while since you’ve sharpened a piece of iron (like never!). Basically, the more you use iron and other metals to do things like chop food and make dinner, the duller those metals become. But when two pieces of metal are rubbed together, they can actually make each other sharper and shinier—almost like new!
In the same way, as we go throughout our week at school, in the halls, at practice, and even at home, eventually we can become tired and worn out. Having the right friends in our lives to encourage and support us can make us sharp again.
In the moments we’re feeling “dull,” the right friends can build us up, making us “sharper” for the day ahead.
Who’s one person you can reach out to for some encouragement the next time you’re feeling exhausted or discouraged?
