Not everybody has used a pressure cooker. Nor does everybody know what it is. My mom used hers all the time. Her mother, my grandmother, taught her to use one. It is funny that high schools don’t have home economics any more, especially cooking classes. I never took a home economics class, but I could cook better than my wife when we married. I still think I can cook better, but that’s another story. But using a pressure cooker used to be a tricky thing. Because if you didn’t use it right, it could blow up in your face. Today’s models have all kinds of safety equipment on them. The cookers are now electronic and fairly easy to use. I can jams and jellies and want to get a good commercial unit to use. Anyway, getting back to the pressure cooker, I find that a lot of people are placed in pressure cooker. This happens to find out what is inside of them. You will never know what kind of or how much pressure you can take until you are in the situation. Also, you will find out what kind of person you are when the pressure comes. I have seen people who were even tempered blow up at pressured situations. Most people aren’t willing to get into a pressured situation, so God places us in them. God isn’t being mean to us, but wanting us to find out what is in our heart. It doesn’t mean that I’m going to run into the lion’s den. But if I am called upon, I am willing. For God says that our trials of our faith are more precious than gold.
