BY SCOTT PRELLER

GREEN PASTURES ARE BEFORE ME, WHICH YET I HAVE NOT SEEN; BRIGHT SKIES WILL SOON BE O'ER ME, WHERE DARKEST CLOUDS HAVE BEEN. MY HOPE I CANNOT MEASURE, MY PATH IN LIFE IS FREE; MY FATHER HAS MY TREASURE, AND HE WILL WALK WITH ME.

—CHRISTIAN SCIENCE HYMNAL. NO. 148, ANNA L. WARING

"Worst financial crisis since the Great Depression." "Corruption and greed on Wall Street threaten to bring down US economy." "America collapse panics global markets." When the day starts with headlines like those, it wouldn't be unnatural to wish you could climb back into bed and pull the covers over your head, hoping that it will all just go away, or that perhaps the "experts" will figure it all out.
