This is some stuff that won't fit anywhere else, and I gotta get it off my chest.
1. Somehow I think Trump won't get his wall, but he'll probably get a better fence. And it really doesn't matter much.
2. Some of the things my heart points out to me about the future rest on how certain pivotal figures act or don't act. I've already said Trump missed his cue.
3. For some really strange reason, I feel the urge to quit worrying about the laptop and just focus on having a really solid desktop machine for future ministry work. Not that I was barking up the wrong tree before, but contingencies have shifted.
4. I've got enough mobility stuff for whatever is coming and I'll just sit on that for now. Travel is now unlikely. Should our tax refund turn out as expected, everything else will be covered. The Lord provides for the calling He makes on us.
5. I felt the urge to stock just a certain small collection of canned goods, nothing big. There's still something unseen between us and the first crisis. What's on top of us must come as a surprise for God to get what He wants out of it, so He's not telling what it is.
I still wonder if I'm not going nuts, but this stuff is solid in my convictions.

Even if you are going nuts, that doesn't mean necessarily that you're wrong. If we're not a little crazy, we're probably doing life wrong to begin with.

As a certified nut, who is off his numbing pacification meds. I think stocking up on preserved foods is perfectly sound strategy for someone living in tornadoville. I didn't plant a garden last year but this year I'm calling my neighbor to come plough my front yard. Nana has one of those big pressure cookers used for canning. My Dad used to can every year and the chow was magnificent.
As to my sanity, I've found I have more pronounced insight when I'm coming out of my episodes. I hear voices, see auras around people and see a face behind a person's face, most auras are a semi opaque black and the face reveals what is behind the mask. Occasionally a person will have a brighter colorful aura, These are good people. Sadly they are too few, most people are striving for the wrong things. I believe it's a gift but it's also a fine line. Western medicine's denial of mysticism leads to far too many people misdiagnosed and made docile via pharmaceuticals. I continue to reduce the benzo I take, it must be reduced gradually. I only took the SSRI for five or six weeks when I just stopped, that wasn't smart, the withdrawal was bad, extreme paranoia, it took several days before I could leave the house. I still get very antsy in crowds. Agoraphobia. I find talking to myself and the Lord in Wal-Mart helps, it tends to make people give me a wide birth. Yay! I don't want you jerks around me anyway. If you seek God's face with earnest faith instead of going to Dr's, you are better off, long term. Ed you wrote a reply to my Bananas thread that did more to help me than anything my Dr did. I never thanked you so here it is. Thanks, it took a little bit to get it but, the Lord kept sending me back to it.,

Glad I could help, Bro. My whole ministry right now is saying what's on my heart. It's a real blessing to me that there are folks like you who recognize it as something useful. Whatever it is we are building, we really do need to grapple with visions and perceptions our world refuses to recognize. The world needs to know that stuff is normal, not sick.

Okay, well don't waste your silver on them. Just use untipped wooden arrows.

I don't know if it is because I am a 60's child or what, but something inside of me has always made sure my home always had backup supplies. I have food on many shelves, first aid supplies and ample plant tinctures/salves/teas and etc to get us through a bad time. Not to mention the candles, matches, batteries, AND ETC.
But, lately, I have sensed a deep feeling of gratitude for all of it because I feel we may be needing/using/sharing it soon. How soon? Who knows. That part is irrelevant.
And grateful for all of you and the other souls in my life that give me encouragement, support or whatever I need to keep my heart smiling and real.
Shall we all join hands in Spirit and lift each other up? Whether in sync or not doesn't matter for the Lord does not live "in time".
Love you all!

We kind of have a lot of useful supply stuff like that by default since wifey shops a lot at one of those bulk places. Off and on the past few years I've been thinking of stocking up more. Maybe I should start on that again?

You are correct sir, silver is for werewolves.
