Prepper Recon

but the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food, drank from his cup and even slept in his arms. It was like a daughter to him. 2 Samuel 12:3

It has been more than three weeks since our precious little pet, Bessy Mae went home and I miss her so much. The pain is fading but the memories never will. I suppose there will always be a hole in my heart. If you’ve ever lost a pet, you know what I’m talking about. Because your pet was an animal rather than a person, you might find yourself wondering if God knows how you feel. I can assure you he does. Consider today’s verse and the context in which it is used. When God had to confront David about his sin, he sent Nathan the prophet with a parable of a man and his pet. Perhaps it was because David was a battle hardened warrior who’d killed countless people in war. When God needed to touch his heart, maybe He knew that no one is beyond understanding the pain of loosing a pet.

What ever the source of your pain is, know that God understands and He’s there to comfort you.

If you are new to prepping or would like to learn more about how to prepare for tomorrow, please read our 7 Step Preparedness Plan. Come back every Sunday for a new Prepper Bible Study! The most important prep of all is knowing GOD. Jesus said “what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his own soul?” Prepper translation: “What good will it do you to survive the coming economic collapse, nuclear war or even a zombie apocalypse if you don’t know you will go to heaven when you die.” A recent study found that 10 out of 10 people die! On that day we will meet our Maker. It only makes sense to be prepared for that day. Click here to learn more about knowing GOD.

Have a blessed day and happy prepping!
