In this short, Dr. Tabatha Barber shares a personal morning experience of feeling deep peace while doing Bible time. She recounts receiving a prompting from God to take out a pen and write, accompanied by the verse Ecclesiastes 10:10, which contrasts the need for greater strength when an axe is dull with the success that comes from skill. She plans to use this scripture in an upcoming coaches' call, urging participants to focus on sharpening their skills—through learning and sitting still with the Lord—rather than relying solely on brute effort. The message emphasizes the spiritual principle that skill, cultivated through intentional practice and divine guidance, leads to effective outcomes.

Okay, this is so wild. So this morning I woke up with like this really nice sense of peace and I was sat down to do my Bible time and I am leading a call tomorrow for our coaches and I just really felt like God was like, get your pen out, you gotta start writing. And he gave me Ecclesiastes 10:10 this morning and it says that if an ax is dull, more strength is needed, but skill will bring success. And so I'm using that scripture tomorrow for the call because what we do is we try to sharpen that, that dull ax ourself instead of sharpening our skills and learning more and sitting still with the Lord.
