Well, I stocked piled some food, but I've already eaten it - - guess I need to get some more, huh?

I do one big shopping trip a month. If the disaster hits at the beginning of the month, we'll be good for..well...about a month. lol If it hits at the end, I'll be begging from neighbors within days.

I've shopped once a week for years. I never have to go back during the week - I have it down pat! The most I spend is about $150. I usually only spend about $125. If you buy meat, fruit and vegetables and have that in mind, you will always save!

Just in case.
It's funny to me how much stock Christians put in the professionals whether they be economists, doctors, or lawyers and how little trust we put in what God said.

Ps 34:10
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
(KJV)

Prov 28:27
27 He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
(KJV)

1Thes 4:12
12 That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
(KJV)

As for me and my house we are not stockpiling we are giving and lack nothing.

Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
28 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Amen Scotty you get the wisdom award on this post!

It wouldn't do any good. You'd probably eat that too.
