My brother and I were trucking logs into Canada in the 70s. Fortunately, there was a little greasy spoon bordering the mill yard. Sometimes late at night we would stop for a cheeseburger and fries. As we were sitting there half in a daze from too many hours on the road, we noticed something that brought us to our senses. The cook had pulled the propane stove from the wall and was checking the gas line for a leak with a lit match.
With just the two of us in the place, I decided to yell loudly, “Bang!” This outburst caused her to throw her hands in the air, quickly stop the endeavor, and place the stove back where it belonged. She didn’t look at me after that, but my brother got quite a chuckle. That action probably helped our day end well.
There are many articles written on the safe inspection of propane lines by very reputable organizations. These recommendations should be followed to ensure one’s health and safety and that of others.
God has inspired individuals to write sixty-six different books on how to get through this dangerous world without irreparable damage.
It needs to be read and applied and can save us from some explosive circumstances.
Psalm 1:2-3
but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
Give it some thought.
