In the story of Exodus, God inflicted the Egyptians with ten plagues. From the Egyptians point of view, it was a terrible time with massive financial losses and physical hardship. From the Israelites, it was a period of freedom (from slavery), a period of joy, a period to look forward to the promised land.
In this so call "financial crisis", the greedy, white collar criminals, etc are brought to account. These are like the Egyptians. The rest of us, is a period to rejoice where we can buy shares at 10-40% of where they were before.
Thank God he is in control.
