Here is today's communion meditation.
This week our Yearly Cycle filter is to relax into the stretch. Yesterday we talked about becoming elastic by pulling into and embracing those times when God is stretching us so that we build potential energy that can be released. And there is a balance to this of both pushing and pulling. At times we must pull into what God is doing and at other times we must push or press toward the high calling of God. Think of your biceps and triceps. They move the arm in opposite directions, but they are meant to work together as one to allow with arm to move with strength, power, endurance, speed, flexibility, etc. The arm wouldn't move the same with only biceps and no triceps. 
In today's communion we are asking God to help us understand the push and pull of life, and how to walk in it at greater levels in our life. 
 
Today's Health and Fitness Tip
Our workouts are a great opportunity to practice exercising push and pull.  As an example, when you are doing a pushup, you can actively use your upper back muscles to squeeze and pull you down. When we actively pull down it relaxes the muscles that push us back up builds potential energy in those muscles to push us back up. As we push back up, we can fully engage those muscles, which in turn relaxes the upper back muscles, and builds a virtuous cycle. When we learn to push and pull our muscles correctly in our workouts we will find a new source of strength, energy, and power that we didn't know we had before. 
I am praying for you.
