Well, as Christians we can face this time with the Authority that God has ordained us with. Step out on Faith and do not let the troubled times take over you, your mind or your family. Do not allow it to control your actions. It is a difficult battle to win but God says "He will fight your Battles." Turn it over to Him and watch how he works on your behalf. But please remember you must do your part. That part means that you must remain Faithful...it also means that you are still respectful of God...that you are honoring your parents and the covering for your family...and of course it means that despite your grim financial situation you are still obedient and give your tithes unto the Lord. The Bible says that if you are faithful over few things, God will make you ruler over many. So if you tithe off of the small amount you may have today, just imagine the abundance God will bless you with in the future!
So during this time, continue to walk the Christian Journey with the expectation that God will see you through. If you are one of the individuals who has been truly affected by this financial calamity, my prayers go out to you. There are many around the world who pray for you daily. Believe that and know that God will never leave you nor forsake you.
Something that has helped me in the past when I had a bad storm in my life. I would reflect on when I felt I was in the worst storm of my life. Then I would say but I came out! I would think about how I did it and what I did. Every situation is not the same but see if you can draw on your experiences from the past to help you today and in the future. And always realize that you did not do it alone...God made a way SOMEHOW!
Again...be mindful of the AUTHORITY that God has given you! Recognize who Christ is in your life and walk in that Authority believing a better day is ahead!
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.
