"But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of
his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an
infidel."

Hard Thoughts and Notes: If things get bad...
Daniel Valles 4/25/4
Here is a loose collection of small notes
and observations. Most of them take place in a long-term
disaster situation, terrorist attack, or national emergency.
 |
Would
you be able to harm or even kill other human beings even if
you/family were threatened? What about if your resources
were threatened?
|
 |
When
general lack of preparedness in a community, town, or nation is
low, the desperation for resources will be greater.
|
 |
Besides
the casualties from attack, disaster, or emergency, there can be
even greater casualty numbers from the secondary effects.
|
 |
Do you
have a meeting place pre-selected in another town/state where you
will go/meet if there is a disaster, emergency, or attack in your
area? Do your friends and family know to look for you there
to find out if you are safe?
|
 |
Where is
the nearest pond or lake within five miles? (water for
sanitation)
|
 |
If you
were told you have fifteen minutes to leave your area/house, would
you be able to grab everything you need? Can you leave
sooner than that if it was necessary?
|
 |
How long
is your current supply of food in your house? 1 week? 2?
A month? Is your entire current supply of water only your
faucets?
|
 |
"Remember you
are a much better witness for the Messiah if you are healthy and
have food and water. It is hard to witness to someone if you are
digging in the same garbage can for something to eat."
