We've been talking a lot about crisis this week. In the Chinese language, the word crisis has two symbols, the first symbol means danger and the second symbol means opportunity/chance, which is really cool because to me, that means that a crisis is an opportunity for us to grow. I feel like God allows good people to have bad times because it is his way of testing our faith so that He can see if we are truly devoted to him. Trials allow us to be humbled, because when we have ONLY good times, we don't  truly value those good times, it seems to me that it is the hard times that bring the family closer together. I also think that trials and crisis happen because it allows a family to rely on family and as a result, the family will be closer. When crisis happens in a family, it is important to be able to know how to cope. when crisis arises, families need to come together and realize that problems will happen and they need to be prepared to properly face those trials.
