Everyone will suffer. Everything will be different, as will be the responses to this crisis. Some will cling to their possessions, not at all accepting this change. They will grow bitter, thinking of what they used to have and the freedom that their money bought. Now, that lavish lifestyle is gone.

Others will bemoan their losses and wonder how they can continue.

But those who listen to my word will live by faith. They will realize that all of this suffering comes from the Evil One who has used people to bring about this financial disaster and still uses people to make matters worse. They will see this as a call to repentance, for sorrow for their sins. I will fill them with hope, an unswerving hope, and a hope in the face of the greatest difficulties. They will look at their children and realize that their lives are changed forever but they will also see that the lessening of material prosperity allows for an increase in faith.

For those who listen to my word, all of these financial difficulties, that change the landscape of the economy, will lead to a new culture, in which faith can grow and God can once more assume his rightful place as protector of the family.

A new condition of mankind is possible, but only those who listen to me will take advantage of the spiritual blessings that can result.
