Good Morning!
 
We don't hear much about "pressure cookers" anymore, but that was something that my mother used a lot, so I remember about how they work.  There is a little "knob" on the cooker that allows you to "set" it a certain way and it would cause pressure to build up inside of the pot.  However, you could "re-set" the knob, and it would then allow the "pressure" to be released.  Then, whatever is in the "pot" will be taken care of and will come out right.  I want to use this example to show how that same "principle" works in our everday life.
 
Think about it this way...you are the "pot" and your mind (thoughts) are the "knob".  If you "set"  your thoughts on your self and your problems, then the "pressure" and "stress" begins to build up!  However, if you will make a decision to "re-set" your  mind (thoughts) on the Word of God and His promises...then the pressure and the stress leaves and God is able to bring you "peace" knowing that everything will come out just like He promised!  Isaiah 26:3 says that God will give "peace" to those who keep their minds "set" on Him! 
 
You don't have to live your life under "pressure and stress"....just re-set your "knob" on the "pressure cooker"! 
 
Have a Blessed Day!!          (Let "off some steam")!                In His Love, Luanne
