19th Ward News: What's Important to you?

Food Storage Help!

Lately I have been feeling a real urgency to beef (no pun intended Ü) up my food storage, and have found that there are a lot of good helps out there if ya look for them! I thought it would be great to dedicate some space here for us to share food storage tips, or when we come across some really good deals, or ANYTHING that has to do with food storage! I know a lot of you out there are really into this, so please share your knowledge with all of us! Ü One thing that I never really thought about when it comes to food storage is having seeds so that you can grow your own food! I found this really cool place that not only has really good organic and NOT genetically modified seeds, but it also teaches you how to harvest the seeds after the season so that you will never run out! Plus some of these seed have been harvested from generations that are hundreds of years old, back when the food actually had some nutrition in it! If you do not know about Genetically modified foods Trust me you will want to learn about it, it is NOT something you want your family to be eating! Man has NEVER been able to recreate what God intended for us to eat, so I feel like it is really important to make sure you are not eating any kinds of food that has been genetically modified! Anyway, check out this link it tells all about the Survival seed bank! And start sending me food storage ideas so we can all benefit ummmkay? Ü Just click on the picture and it will take you to the page!

I also found another company called Tomorrow's Harvest, that has an interesting concept for Food Storage, that I think is perfect for todays world! Instead of buying 50 pounds of wheat and then wondering what to do with it, this company actually sells complete MEALS and I have to say they are pretty darn tasty! And sooo easy to fix, you just add hot water! Plus you can store a whole years supply under a king size bed! I think it is wonderful for single people especially, or for families with little kids who are picky eaters, or for those who do not have a lot of storage place! AND you can get it for as little as $39 bucks a month! So check out this link too: www.tomorrowsharvest.com

What's Important to you?

Ok I am going to do something a little different here with this post because I really want to know your thoughts and opinions! I hope that you all will share! Ok, so the other day I got asked this question and it really made me think! If you only had 30 seconds to tell your children what the 3 most important things about life were, what would you tell them? Wow! I had to do some deep thinking, and it was hard to narrow it down to just 3 but here are my thoughts:

1. To Trust God with all your heart, to know that he loves you unconditionally, and that he knows what YOU need, to learn life lessons.

2. To be deeply and sincerely grateful for everything you have! Good things happen to those who are grateful!

3. To be positive and persistent! Those two things can help you achieve any goal you can conceive!

Ok now it's your turn, I REALLY want to hear what YOU would say, when asked this question. I know I will gain wonderful insights from all of you, my friends, so please leave a comment, I'm sure we will ALL benefit! Ü Thank you!
