When something or someone is cast into a 'pressure cooker' like we all had in the 'good ole days' of the 1960's where Mom could take a less expensive piece of meat and make a tender, delicious cut of meat for the family dinner with garden veggies, too. That big old cooking pot can have different uses, stories, also illustrative scenarios.
As I have repeated myself on this humble blog a number of times.... It's easy to be the head of a normal family and do 'the right thing' when the money is always there on payday from a good paying job and be smiling, patient, kind and generous to all. But just take away that steady income and all the common safety nets by whatever disaster and we have a completely different story! Pressure from creditors, bills, family members and circumstances start to produce a stressful time for all, and then the 'real fun' begins! The kids just don't understand why their allowance dries up all of a sudden, and they are forced to eat the same old, cheaper kinds of meals almost every day, with vacations cancelled amid an acute lack of money, etc. And when the main bread winner is forced to take a different, lower paying job just to survive, tempers might flare with more disagreements.
I went thru all of that kind of pressure several times in my life and that put tremendous pressure on my marriages causing them to be dissolved and fractured, with the children suffering from the split up, etc. Those old times still make me feel sorrow and shame, times of regret. But at that same time, my brother Albert [rest his soul] was working tons of overtime and investing in the good things in life, strutting around and comparing himself to my dire situation... but I will not speak ill of the dead and I miss him dearly. It's just that some folks will live in a more comfortable style of life, never get sick, injured or had an accident or misfortune.... while others suffer almost everything that comes down the pike -- and through no fault of their own.
Let all of us be kind, generous, and good hearted toward our brothers and sisters when they fall down or suffer loss, etc. Because sooner or later reality will bite us in the butt and then our lives might shattered over night! And we will all go before the Judgment Throne of our Father in Heaven to explain why we did this and that, some day. But some of us may have a different father who is not so nice or loving... namely Satan the devil. But that's another story and post. Today is Thursday, April 23rd, 2020.
Well, friends, it will surely be interesting very soon as to what will happen in the USA concerning the following Lock Down, Laws and Rules of engagement. 'The world is a stage and a spectacle, with all the angels looking on the actions of men.' Angels are different creatures made by God Almighty as they live in a different dimension where they can live forever ---- vs: humans who are mortal, who can die or be killed in a heart beat. But humans who love and serve Yahweh, the Father in Heaven, will someday be HIGHER and also judge angels! I bet many of you want more proof of what I just said.... LOL! My darling wife knows that when I know I am right, I will bet money on that question...Ha! But that's not really gambling --- but a sure bet. Truth is: I cannot afford to gamble, so I rely on things that are concrete and sure. And that, "It is impossible for God to lie." -- Hebrews 6: 18.
Have a great day!
Warm Regards,

Will Ramadan force an end to the National Lock Down?
It better not as we have been attacked for wanting to go back to church! In the so called phases of reopening
churches and schools are last as it stands now! Time to put Muslims in their place and say NO to them!
'Perhaps the gathering throngs at Ramadan will influence local Democrat-controlled governments to open up the lock down on everyone or be forced to explain the disparity between treatment of Muslims versus Christians and Jews. The hypocrisy revealed at that point would be staggering. President Trump will have no problem pointing this out to everyone.
There is a good possibility they will instead declare the virus crisis essentially over and begin to open churches and businesses back up rather than put their true hatred of Christians and Jews on display.'
Will Ramadan force an end to the lockdown?
Andrew Thomas, AmericanThinker.com/blog
As the Muslim celebration of Ramadan arrives (April 23 to May 23), many of the faithful will expect to attend worship services at their local mosques. Will local and state governments treat Muslim worshipers at Ramadan the same as they treated Christian worshipers at Easter?
Will officials arrest imams for holding services as they did to a Christian pastor in Tampa? How likely is it that Kentucky officials will sprinkle nails in mosque parking lots and take license plate numbers of worshipers? Will NYC mayor Bill de Blasio threaten to permanently shut down mosques as he did Christian churches and Jewish synagogues if they dare to hold services?
And then there is the case of "the worst governor in America," Gretchen Whitmer. Banning the sale of vegetable seeds and American flags and making it illegal to drive across the state, but allowing abortions as an "essential service," she has wielded the most dictatorial powers of any governor. How will she deal with the huge Muslim enclaves in Dearborn and Ann Arbor as Ramadan arrives?
