A mother noticed that it was about time for school to dismiss and since it looked like it would rain she drove toward the school to pick up her 8-year-old daughter. She turned down the street to see her daughter running towards her down the sidewalk. A lightning bolt flashed and the little girl looked up towards the sky, smiled, and then began running towards her mother's car. Another lightning bolt flashed and again the little girl looked towards the sky, smiled and resumed running. This happened several more times until the little girl finally arrived at where her mother was parked. Her Mom immediately inquired as to the strange behavior. "Why did you keep stopping and smiling at the sky," she asked her daughter. "I had to, Mommy. God was taking my picture."

No problem, I can relate. When we were kids and we heard thunder, the grownups told us the angels were bowling.

God is not a Doomer.

yeah, and besides, remember this too:

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, "Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us!" He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me. Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah. But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah. I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about. Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

And that's that!

I hope God has nothing to do with Bayer aspirin. Bayer was in cahoots with the Nazi's in the concentration camps....

You did know that? Bayer is a German drug manufacturer...

Chicken,

A good point, but the same fella who wrote those words also wrote to the Corinthian church that he was coming to take an offering to help the church at Jerusalem where there was a famine. If you don't do any preparing, how will you be able to help if the supply is interrupted?

Weren't you one of the posters who was rescuing animals in SC? Be sure you check the post above on Tarzan's Offspring.

Just for fun:

A kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they drew. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's artwork. As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was.

The girl replied, "I'm drawing God."

The teacher paused and said, "but no one knows what God looks like."

Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the girl replied, "They will in a minute."

If you prepare for no other reason, prepare for the children, they are the most precious thing we have. Anyway, if nothing would happen, they'll be able to take the year's worth of food and pretty much get rid of it in a week.
