Are We Prepared?

This month in the Ensign Magazine (LDS monthly magazine) President Monson's message was very timely.  It is titled "Are We Prepared?"  (click HERE to read the entire article)

There haven't been too many talks or articles on food storage in the past few years.  But recently I've noticed more and more people are talking about being prepared.  Our leaders don't proclaim to know the future, but they do warn us and help us to be ready for whatever may come our way.  We would be very smart to listen to their advice.

President Monson-  "We live in turbulent times. Often the future is unknown; therefore, it behooves us to prepare for uncertainties. When the time for decision arrives, the time for preparation is past.

Are we prepared for the emergencies in our lives? Are our skills perfected? Do we live providently? Do we have our reserve supply on hand? Are we obedient to the commandments of God? Are we responsive to the teachings of prophets? Are we prepared to give of our substance to the poor, the needy? Are we square with the Lord?"
