WHO AM I?

SO MANY PEOPLE LOOK IN THE MIRROR EVERY MORNING AND EVERY NIGHT AND ASK THEMSELVES “WHO AM I?”

ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD, I AM HERE TO TELL YOU THAT WE ARE WHO GOD SAYS WE ARE.
 

SO OFTEN WE ENCOUNTER PEOPLE ON A DAILY BASIS THAT CALL US EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN BUT THE SON OR DAUGHTER OF GOD.

WE MUST STOP ANSWERING TO WHAT MAN CALLS US AND START ANSWERING TO WHAT GOD CALLS US.

I AM HERE  ON ASSIGNMENT, AND MY ASSIGNMENT IS NOT TO JUDGE, BUT TO HELP LEAD YOU, DIRECT YOU, AND GUIDE YOU TO JESUS CHRIST.  OUR POOR YOUNG PEOPLE AND SOME OF OUR SEASONED FOLKS ARE LOST. 

WE ARE LEADERS, WE ARE HEIRS TO ALL OF THE RICHES AND GLORY GOD HAS FOR US, WE ARE KINGS AND QUEENS, THE HEADS AND NOT THE TAILS AND UNTIL WE START LIVING LIKE WE KNOW WHO WE ARE, LIVING THE WAY GOD HAS CALLED US TO LIVE, WE WILL NOT PROSPER, WE WILL CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE IN A STATE OF CONFUSION.

HURRICANE SANDY - The things we take for granted

Hurricane Sandy has really showed herself strong. I have been with out power since Monday, October 29, 2012 at 515pm and today is Friday, November 2, 2012, 912pm and I still do not have power. This is the first time I have ever endured such an event as this. I mean, I'm use to the lights going out  and then coming back on a few hours later, not days later. I have been out of work since Monday, October 29th at 515pm. Thank God for FAMILY.  We have been together ever since Tuesday.  The first night (Monday) was the worst, i tried to be brave for my children, even though they are 21 and 14, just the sound of that wind, and the swaying of the house made it difficult to sleep....

There are so many things we take for granted, like, electricity, heat, cell phone reception, not being able to connect with others.  This storm has made me realize that I was truely not ready for it.  So, I have vowed to myself that I will create an emergency care pack for each member of my house hold.

Hurricane Supply Kit

Both the National Hurricane Center and the American Red Cross have developed specific guidelines for Hurricane supply kits. A hurricane survival kit is merely a specialized version of your disaster supply kit. It should include provisions to carry you through a week or two after a storm or other disaster. Our hurricane preparation page includes additional recommendations based on experiences of real people who have been through similar situations. Remember, the more water, food, and other items you have the better off you will be in the event of an emergency. You will be able to assist family and friends if needed.
Some companies include pre-assembled survival kits that include water purification tablets and more. They can be useful in addition to your own kit.
Our own version increases some of their recommendations and includes some additional items that are helpful in our experience.
Remember to print hard copy of any documents you need - instructions, tips or anything in case you have no power.

Water - at least 1 gallon daily per person for 7 to 10 days. Katrina and Wilma should have emphasized the importance of having sufficient water on hand. Don't forget some for your pets.

Food - at least enough for 3 to 7 days
— non-perishable packaged or canned food / juices
— foods for infants or the elderly
— snack foods (Peanut butter; mixed PBJ; breakfast bars; crackers; canned fruit; raisins; chips;
— non-electric can opener
— cooking tools / fuel
— paper plates / plastic utensils / paper cups
