Be Grateful, Be Prepared
The events of the past week regarding the historic hurricane that the Lord sent has sent many shock waves around the world. There are many who have lost everything, and have no resources to even attain the basics needs (Sirach 29:21). The media has focused their attention on the weathy and the destruction that occurred in major communities in the northeast United States, Cuba and arts of Haiti, and Caribbean countries which were hit hard as well. In fact, many of our fellow kinsmen have been living in these very same conditions for many years based on greed of the governments that conquered them and now through the judgement of the Most High. The tide has truly turned.

For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of the light, and the children of the day; we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others ; but let us watch and be sober. [/blockquote]
For those who are in the faith of Christ, it is a time to reflect on the Heavenly Fathers’ mercy. We need to be acknowledging The Most High power and might, and be ever so grateful for another day and chance to repent in his laws, statutes and commandments before the Great Day of the Lord.
Before the storm hit, there was plenty of people running around preparing, flashlights, batteries, food, and shelter for what many thought was going to be nothing major. It came at night and many people were in for a serious wake-up call.
Preparing for the ultimate judgement day of the Lord is something we should be doing all the time (Matthew25:13), not just when a physical or spiritual storm is approaching.

[blockquote class=”type3″] Matthew 24 vs 36-39 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so shall the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until that day that Noah entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Shalom Sis! All praises to the most High for reminding us to remain sober minded. Phil. 4:11-12, Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
