I really do think we need to contemplate our readiness plan, if you catch my drift. I live in a large metropolitan area, and it would be pure hell if the stuff hit the fan without a backup area to fall back to.
I hear ya, but in all seriousness...and I do mean, the deepest level of seriousness...if this is the time, then there eventually will be no place to take refuge, and our only readiness will be our declaration of faith in God. That is where we will make our final stand.
