RIch LDS

So I learned at church that the LDS people, in the last days, will be the richest of the rich, according to several prophets, and I started wondering, what will make us rich? Is it because we are like the Jews, and we're stubborn, we work hard, and we stick together and network? Will we take over the financial sectors, and all be Donald Trumps? And then I realized, nope, we will not be rich in the world's sense of the word, right now, but we will be rich in gardens, food storage, water jugs, propane, self-sufficiency, quilts, sewing, etc....and there will come a time when those things will be valued much more than boats, mansions, and fancy cars. Interesting. They're already saying that because of the economic downturn, people are looking for houses that are sustainable, off the grid, and with land for gardens- instead of the trend before the bust.

hello hello

Anyone ever look at this? It's supposed to be this little cozy family site that motivates us to read the scriptures and share our insights. Hmmm, anyone reading these days? A man had a donkey and a carrot and a stick. His friend said he understood the motivation of the carrot, but why the stick. The man said, "That's to get his attention." What stick can I use to get some attention?
