What's Wrong With This Country?

I was watching Good Morning America last Friday morning and they had a reporter asking questions of those folks sitting in their cars waiting for gasoline in NYC.

Reporter:  How's it going?

Woman:  How's it going?  I have no power in my house and have now been sitting in line for two hours just waiting to buy gasoline!!  What's wrong with this country??

The strongest storm surge ever recorded in NY and NJ had just washed through, subway tunnels still full of water, FEMA still digging dead people out of their homes on Staten Island...and this woman simply can't believe that she has no power and no gasoline for OVER 48 HOURS!!!!

Can you begin to understand how people will turn on each other when times REALLY get difficult?

Can you begin to understand how the major cities will become 'death zones' as the food, gasoline and emergency responders grow scarce?

Can you begin to understand how we folks in the modern world have been lulled into believing that SOME GOVERNMENT AGENCY will ALWAYS be there to bring us food, water and a blanket when our emergency comes?

Now just imagine if the disasters of epic proportions start coming in twos or threes...and it swamps the EMERGENCY NETWORK?....then throw in some contagious, airborne disease so that the EMERGENCY RESPONDERS feel they need to stay home to take care of their own families?

Can you see how the collapse would happen?

As we have said many times....WE HOPE IT NEVER HAPPENS TO US...but the Bible is very clear that it is GOING TO HAPPEN.

Are we ready if it does?  Do we have sufficient oil in our lamps?
