Prepared in The Wilderness

Prepared in The Wilderness was free for the Kindle when I wrote this.

From the description:

 What if America collapsed economically as a nation? What if
international agencies cooperated with local agencies to seize
property and place individuals that resist the global agenda into
internment camps or murder them on site? What if you the reader were
immersed into this situation? What if the only place you could
relocate to was towards the uncertainty of the wilderness but found
refuge in a community that was embedded there? What if your task was
to locate other places of interest and refuge as well as tracking
routes with your only available means of doing so were to read letters
between two brothers with coded writings that also share their
experiences from months prior as they share the events surrounding
them, reconcile their relationship, and cling to hope of Messiah's
return? Are you willing? Are you able? Are you ready to be immersed
into the lives of two brothers that are embedded in communities, live
life practically, share everything, utilize their gifts for the well
being of the community, and most importantly to dig into the
scriptures yourself? Are you ready to be prepared in the Wilderness??

Homemade Paint For The Kiddos!!

We have fun with this. Great way to make paint for the kids. I make this and let my son have fun.

1 cup salt

 1 cup flour

 1 cup water

 food coloring

That is it. Mix it in plastic squeeze bottles or plastic bowls that have lids. Make sure they are somewhere that is safe to get paint on and wear old clothes. I find that the more food coloring I add the more it stains. That is the only bad thing about this. I set my sons table outside when it is warm and he can paint all day!!

Doomsday can be unpredictable, like a hurricane or a devastating earthquake, giving people only a few hours or days to prepare.

Even if you don’t believe that doomsday is near, there are dozens of other natural disaster and man-made problem scenarios you and your family may face that require you to survive in situations you had never even dreamed of: job losses, house fires, localized or global war, famine.
