THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH GO ALONG THEIR MERRY WAY.
Many ask themselves, who is God and why does He even care about us?
WHO ARE WE?
Since we are His sons and daughters, we have a spark of Deity in us and He wants us to be like Him. He knows we will not get there in this life, but after this life, depending how we choose.
Most of the world does not realize that they are all sons and daughters of God, the Father. He has sent our spirits here to obtain a body and be tested in all things and to learn how to take care of this body. He has given us Free Agency to choose between Good and Evil.
This shows Him who we really are and how much we can be trusted with responsibility when we return.
It also teaches ourselves who we are also. He shows us our strengths and our weaknesses so we can correct the weaknesses and make them strengths and to improve on our strengths.
The coming, as a spirit, into a body for this test was just as scary for us, as much as we are now scared of dying.
He has made it that way so that we will try to stay alive as long as we can to postpone dying and accomplish the mission he sent us to do.
We all have experiences to go through and things to learn. He has also given each of us a mission or responsibility to accomplish the things we promised Him we would do.
We are not here by chance.
THIS EARTH LIFE EXPERIENCE.
We are taught by our earthly parents to be honest, kind and be hard workers. They tell us how to survive after they are gone back to Heaven.
We live alone at first, then marry and have children and we teach them what we were taught.
The Lord knows we will have trials and challengers, and bad times. This is especially true for those of us who now live in the Last Days before the Second Coming of his Son, Jesus Christ.
He has given His children on the earth prophets at different time in history to guide us and teach us.
In these Last Days it has not changed, no matter what anyone else says. He has not left us alone.
Jesus Christ has Restored His church and also Restored the Fullness of His Gospel. He has given us prophets again. We have not had a prophet since 421 A.D.
PREPARING FOR WHAT IS COMING.
Because He knows what is coming in cleansing the earth of the wicked, He has told His prophets to tell us to prepare.
The Prophet Heber J. Grant in 1936 was inspired by the Lord to institute and teach the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to become self sufficient.
Forty four years later in 1980, Apostle Ezra Taft Benson of the church and former Secretary of Agriculture under President Dwight D. Eisenhower, told us to Prepare for the Last Days of Tribulation.
He became the Prophet of the Church in 1985. He knew what was coming and stressed strongly to be prepared.
Do not expect prophets in this day to look like or dress like prophets in ancient days. Prophets act and dress like those in their day.

Even if you are NOT a member, this is important for you to hear.
When this Church was Restored by the Lord, and He chose a prophet, the prophet was to be for the Whole World, not just the church.
If they would listen.
He knew many would not.
Articles on Preparedness will be entered under this category.
