But faith without preparation or work is dead. &nbsp; That’s not faith. That’s risk.THE ROOT PROBLEM&nbsp;So what’s really going on? It’s deeper than money. It’s a mindset problem.We avoid uncomfortable conversations. What happens if I die? Is my family protected? Do I even have a plan? We say things like I’m still young. I’ll figure it out later. God will provide.But here’s the truth: Provision can come through preparation.THE TRUE COST&nbsp;Let’s talk about the real cost of not having a plan. It’s not just money. It’s what happens after you’re gone. Children pulled out of stability. Homes lost. Dreams canceled. Stress added to grief. And here’s the painful part. The people you love the most are the ones who suffer the most. All because of one thing: Lack of preparation.Now here’s where everything changes. Legacy is not about being rich. It’s about being intentional. Legacy means: Planning while you’re alive, protecting while you’re here, transferring when you’re gone. It’s a system. And one of the most powerful tools in that system is Life insurance.Not as an expense. But as a strategy. A way to say: If I’m not here, my family will still stand. This is how you break cycles.&nbsp;So here’s the question: What will your family face if something happens to you tomorrow? Silence? Confusion? Or security?Because the truth is, you don’t build legacy when you’re gone. You build it now.Start simple: have the conversation, understand your options and Put something in place. Don’t wait for the perfect time. Because emergencies don’t schedule appointments. Let this be the moment everything changes.One decision today Can protect your family forever.
