2648) I am probably the only person in the world who has a cast iron frying pan that leaks. I know! How is this possible? Sigh.

The reason this is hard to believe is that iron is heavy and tough. We can see a cartoon character take a frying pan and hit someone with it, causing that person to be stunned, at best.

Iron is heavy, and Proverbs 27:17 tells us iron can be used to sharpen other iron things. It’s tough enough (unless you have mine) to help shape another object that is just as tough.

This verse tells us we have a resource to help us through life, and that’s other people. Just like iron sharpens iron.

However, if you have a pan like I do, it’s not good for others to rely on mine to help theirs. Choosing the right people to spend a lot of time with is important.
