At the Feet of the Prophet

I love this man! Here are some quotes from President Thomas Monson about preparedness:

“We encourage members world-wide to prepare for adversity in life by having a basic supply of food and water and some money in savings.”

“We ask that you be wise as you store food and water and build your savings. Do not go to extremes; it is not prudent, for example, to go into debt to establish your food storage all at once. With careful planning, you can, over time, establish a home storage supply and a financial reserve.”

“Preparation is hard work but absolutely essential for our progress.”

“Have discipline in your preparations. Have checkpoints where you can determine if you’re on course.”

“Many more people could ride out the storm-tossed waves in their economic lives if they had their year's supply of food…and were debt free. Today we find that many have this counsel in reverse: they have at least a year's supply of debt and are food free.”

“Make certain as you prepare that you do not procrastinate.”

Have a great week everyone and Merry Christmas!
