Summary: Crises have long been a part of the human equation. During a crisis, it is difficult to know what to think or believe. The story of Job helps us to understand that we can affirm at least four truths during a crisis.

1. In crises we can affirm that God is in control. Job 42:1-2

2. In crises we can affirm that God knows things we cannot know or comprehend. Job 42:3

3. In crises we can affirm that the crisis can help clarify our understanding of God, though

it may take time. Job 42:4-5

4. In crises we can affirm our personal response to God. Job 42:6
