When something is sticky – it indicates that something hasn’t happened. Let’s examine.
When the floor is sticky in front of the refrigerator, it indicates my son hasn’t cleaned up the soda he dropped taking it out.
When the valves in my truck are sticking, it indicates I haven’t been changing the oil or having it maintained properly.
When ingredients begin sticking to my fingers while cooking, it indicates that I didn’t wash my hands enough after handling the bread dough.
When things are sticky, something – usually self-explanatory and evident – needs to be done to fix the problem.
I’ll never forget the day I realized that some pages of my Bible were sticking together (after all these years!), indicating that I had never read these pages.
Hmm.
