Encouraging family & friends 2 be prepared is tough. #emergencystorage

Yep, I'm having the same problem with certain family members. They either don't want to talk about it because they think I'm too "old-fashioned," or they stay that just freezing your food for short term will get you through the tough times. If they only knew what they were saying ...



One of my relatives even had the audacity to tell me a couple years ago that I should "stop listening to so much news." Although he didn't mention him by name, I knew he meant Glenn Beck. After that, I felt bad for my relative and his own family. Another relative played the "what if" game with me, saying, "What if you had all this food & other supplies, and people came and robbed you blind? Then what are you going to do?"



A facebook "friend" actually said she'd rather starve and go to Heaven than stockpile food. A perfect example of a martyr, which is not what the Bible teaches us to live like in this life.



It's every little excuse thrown at me to try and make me feel guilty about being prepared for whatever may come. It's not going to stop me one bit.

Becoming self-sufficient during a financial meltdown is difficult enough, but trying to convince reluctant loved ones to prepare can be doubly frustrating. It’s hard to understand how anyone wouldn’t want to start stockpiling their pantries after watching the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the earthquake in Haiti, and more recently the devastating floods in Pakistan. We all watched the newsreels; millions of homeless and hungry fighting for a spot in breadlines. If that isn’t reason enough, the U.S. continues to be threatened with nuclear attack. Meanwhile, most of us are hanging by a gossamer thread between solvency and financial ruin. We see the reason for preparedness. Why can’t our loved ones?

Morning Bell: Obama Has Something To Apologize For

When President Ronald Reagan stood before the Brandenburg Gate in West Germany and famously demanded that Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev “Tear down this wall!” he brought to Europe—and indeed the world—America’s conviction that freedom and democracy are a powerful liberating force whose time had come for those living under communist oppression.

By contrast, as President Barack Obama travels throughout Europe this week and meets with U.S. allies, including the United Kingdom and Poland, he brings with him the baggage of his presidency—more than two years of a foreign policy that has neglected America’s friends in Europe. Though the President has embarked on a worldwide “apology tour” for what he believes are America’s transgressions, he now truly has something to apologize for.

Another False Prophet Used by Media

Although I've always believed the scriptures to be inspired by God & written by prophets & disciples of Christ, I am saddened by this man, Harold Camping to get all the free press he could handle to claim that the Rapture was going to take place on Saturday, May 21st, 2011.



What I see happening as a result is the prophetic words of Christ when he said this:



Matthew 24:34-36:



34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.



35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.



36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.



Harold Camping is responsible for what he says. He should be ashamed of himself for all this. That's why he's in seclusion. But, his final judgment is not up to me or anyone else. He has to face God Almighty whenever that day comes for him.



I also call out the mainstream media for even giving him the time or the air space on the subject, because it only embarrasses honest Christians who honestly believe in Christ's words about the end times. Yes, we have the hope of the rapture. But we do NOT know the date or the hour, as Jesus Christ said. What's even more prophetic is that Jesus knew that his followers would be persecuted for his sake. So here we are, Christianity is being mocked even more now, all because of some so-called "prophet" gaining public notoriety not once but twice for the same thing.

Harold Camping 'Bewildered' After Apocalypse Comes and Goes Quietly


Harold Camping is "mystified" and "a little bewildered" today that the Rapture did not go as he predicted, an associate of the California preacher told ABC News.


Tom Evans, a board member of Camping's Family Radio International, said today that Camping's wife told him her husband is at their home in Oakland and has no intention to speak or issue any statement today or Monday.


Camping's wife described him as being "somewhat bewildered" and "mystified" that events did not unfold on May 21 as Camping had predicted, Evans said.

Obama Continues to Ignore the Rule of Law by Decree

Barack Obama has decided that he doesn't need Congressional approval to continue with the Libyan conflict. What I don't understand is why both houses of Congress doesn't begin impeachment proceedings upon returning to Capitol Hill on Monday. What are they waiting for? This man who has occupied the White House (illegally, I may add) for more than two years has no intention of following US Law on anything.

Floyd Reports has a great article on this. Click here for more information.
