The effect of the global economic crisis is so serious that all of us have to tighten our belts. We now begin to feel the weight of worry and we are concerned over an uncertain future. We are also concerned about enduring these challenging times. But, we must remain steadfast in hope, work with all our strength and trust God, putting Him first in everything we do. I have learned two principles which I believe could be useful to surviving in any existing economy. "Keep on working." ... and ... "Never stop learning."

hi joetag how about this from the first depression my mom taught me this: use it up, wear it out, make it do , or do without. We are spoiled here in the US as we have had some good years now we have a bad economy and many have not got the foggiest idea of how to survive in it. they still go in debt as they have to have the newest cell phone, ipod, blue berry or black berry whatever the name, the newest electronic gadgets they think are a must, then they scream when they are running out of money before the end of the month. if we are to endure we must eliminate a lot of things you have to haves and concentrate on just what we really need, getting down to the bare minimum.

Hi, Hatley. Well, I think many people have that kind of attitude, not only in the US but all over the world. Expenses are bigger than income, and fall into debts. Yes, if we are to endure we have to have discipline.

Yes, with everything going on around us it can be a stressful time for sure. Many times so many want to give up and that is when things could become worse for sure. I do know personally a Trust in God to help see me thru, and Prayer gets me thru just when I might feel like giving up as well. When people learn to Trust god and learn to take more control over all of their situations Great things can happen as well.
