Know a Good Roofer

As I walked out my front door this morning, I could not help but notice that the yards in my neighborhood are dotted with roofers signs. Insurance adjusters will be climbing on roofs in the area for weeks to come.It is good to know that most of those affected by the storms last week were prepared to protect their homes by having insurance. Yes that deductible smarts in the wallet a little, but It is far better than the other option.

We all take steps to make sure our house is insured, but do we put the same efforts into making sure are family is ready. Last week in this blog, I published a simple family disaster plan. It is important for the members of our families to know what to do if a disaster strikes. Does your Family know what to do if the emergency sirens go off. What room is the safest place to go when weather turns dangerous. Were does your family meet if they can not get to your house.

These are just a few of the questions everyone in your family should be able to answer. Being prepared won't stop a disaster, but it may save many hours of searching for family after a storm. If you have not already done it, I hope you will take some time and discuss a plan with your family.

God doesn't promise to keep disaster away, but he does promise us an eternal solution to all our problems "For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands." 2 Corinthians 5:1
