Form > Function

Have you seen those paracord bracelets? Those ones that look kind of like rope and are suposed to be somewhere like twelve feet long. I've realized something about them . . . they are not for function. Most people that have one might brag about how they are some twelve feet long and can hold about 550 pounds without breaking. But then never have the intention of ever taking it off and undoing the bracelet to actually use that paracord. It reminds me of myself. Often I have a tool on my very wrist but I just ignore its potential. I just think how sweet it looks but when I need that rope to actually tie something down I go and look elsewhere. Maybe we all do that with something? Perhaps with our family? Or even with our Bibles . . . just a thought.
