Is your State Ready for a National Disaster?

[Snow4JC]

Is your state ready for a National Disaster?

Since Hurricane K, the problems seen deep in the south, One would start wondering if your state is prepared for a National Disaster?

I live in the state of Michigan. I will have to write our Governor and find out what is in place.

At this time we know FEMA doesn't have it together. They are working things out on a minute to minute agenda. Hopefully, they will have it together by what ever is going to come next.

The Military has different places all over the state, where supplies of water and food could be stored.

Maybe sitting back and assuming isn't where the answer lies. It takes a little energy on your part to make positive changes in our states.

Psalms 91

1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust."

3 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler F86 And from the perilous pestilence.

4 He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day,

6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you.

8 Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked.

oh man... you ready for a fall....

I think Katrina demonstrated how woefully prepared we are as a nation for any type of large-scale disaster. Katrina is small compared to a nuclear terrorist strike.

As believers we know that God's will will be done on earth and we draw each and every breath from Him.

Therefore, for those of us living for Him we need not worry about our safety. Because, it is always a father's duty to look after the safety of his children. That's how it is in my household. How much more so of our heavenly Father?

Sometimes when I'm struggling with something I'll just bring it before the Lord and then say, "there... now it's Your problem."

I don't mean that flippantly or irreverantly. I think that is how God wants us to come to Him.

Phi 4:6 Be anxious for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Phi 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

So, it is as we pray for everything that the peace of God keeps our hearts and minds. How is this? Because, after you cast it before the Lord's feet in prayer it is now His to deal with... literally.

If we turn all of these bases we have closed for the last 15 years into staging areas and housing for refugees, then maybe we would be prepared. Florida is kinda prepared with what happened last year, but realistically how prepared can any one state be?

The decree for the fall of the world went out before the days that the Lord created it. The elements have no power over the Lord and His elect. However since it is in the Lord’s plan for me to fall then I will fall when the time comes. But for those who don’t know what is going to happen to them. There is this scripture and they would do well to understand the urgency and pray without seizing.

Lu 21

36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man."

Fema had it all together in Oklahoma City during the Federal Building Bombing, I know for we had to interface with them. They also were not just sitting by during the May 3rd level 5 tornado that ripped across Oklahoma City several years ago. Very quick and extreamly decisive.

Something is drastically different in New Orleans, and I can't put my finger on just what, but it is different.

It will be interesting to see what new laws and proceedures come about from all this.....

if you are looking for a conspiracy angle I can come up with a few

If you are right-wing;

1. Bush and the Feds want a large port with no one close enough to see what they are doing

2. Bush wants to start race riots so he can impose martial law on America.

3. Bush wants to federalize all crops coming down the Mississippi.

if you are left wing;

1. Bush doesn't care about black people. Never mind the fact that no other President in our history has had so many black people in high Cabinet offices.

2. Bush and the Republicans don't want to pay Social Security for a bunch of old folks, or let them have clean water....so they conspired to let them die.

3. Cheney and Haliburton have figured out how to aim a hurricane and they wanted to drive up the price of gasoline

Shall I continue???

seriously though Sam, the catastrophes you mentioned were much smaller in scale. This is an area the size of Great Britain without communications, electricity. clean water, fuel, or roads!

It's NEW ORLEANS!!!

Can you name any city in America that was like it?

Did you all hear about how this weekend (Labor Day weekend) New Orleans was having its annual "Southern Decadence" celebration of homosexuality? It was a very depraved type of celebration... it shouldn't be hard to imagine for anyone who has witnessed Mardi Gras footage.
