I live in Southeast Texas and we were smack in the path of the major huuricanes last year. Every year I prepare for hurricane season in that I stock up on water, batteries, canned stuff and so forth...common sense stuff. What we don't use during hurricane season, I either donate to my church or the local food bank, I have done this for years.

What I don't do is worry about what may or may not happen...televangelists, preachers, people who believe in crystal balls and such will prophecy until Jesus comes. A wise person I know says that you should take what people say like a cow eats...chew the cud and spit out the sticks.

We cannot control things like hurricanes or tsunami's so where it is good to be prepared, there is no need to sped too much time worrying about what may or may not happen.

I believe that the folks on TV mean well and I believe that Christians worhsip the same God and Jesus but many tend to do it differently and/or interpret things in a different manner. Psalm 118:8 says "It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man"...so put your faith where it belongs in Christ Jesus and try not to worry about what you hear from man..because he is just that...man.
