I’ve gotten a couple people to do some thinking about prepping.
My sister and a friend of mine. We just got to talking about what an economic collapse might entail, and I kind of casually mentioned having enough stuff like toilet paper and some canned goods around would be helpful to get through a few weeks of inconvenience.
After all, I reasoned, a months worth of stuff wouldn’t take up that much space and you can always use it later if you don’t need it right away.
It’d be better than going hungry.
They agreed and were going to look into it.
Nobody is going to be turned into a hard core prepper over night but I figure if you can get them thinking enough to do SOMETHING, they’ll be better off than otherwise.
1. Get right with God, confess and repent of any secret sin
2. Water - have it! Bottled water. You can also purchase 5 gal collapsible jugs or hard plastic storage systems.
3. Be like Old Testament Joseph and store food in your barns now; dried foods, canned food, pasta, rice, fruit, vegetables, oats, nuts, etc
4. Have alternate sources for power, heat, and light (generators, fireplace, wood stove, oil lamps, flashlights with new Batteries, etc).
5. Have some cash on hand.
