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
