Life Lessons from Rubber Bands

A a thought came to me while I was talking to my cousin last night. In our spiritual life we resemble rubber bands. I know, you think I'm crazy. While that is true, I am going to make a valid point with the whole rubber band thing. A rubber band is only useful when it has been stretched out of its comfort zone. If you don't pull on it the rubber band doesn't really work. It's the same thing with us, as long as we sit unstretched we are pretty useless. But when God pulls us out, and stretches us, taking us from our comfort zone, we find a new hold on life. We find that while it hurts, being stretched and pulled does us good. It makes us remember what we are here for, to be used, not just to sit unstretched.
