Life has many stresses, but things can actually be OK with each of us, despite commotion and problems. In my church of 17.5 million members in most countries, we have made promises with God to help each other and we try to help others in need, in many nations ($1.5 billion last year and growing). That is far from the total level of need, but God has also promised to help us and guide us as individuals and families if we really strive to keep our promises and do our part; He has promised peace in this life and eternal life in the world to come. And there are programs for developing and serving in employment, education, resilience, service to community, etc. And very local congregation has a bishop (unpaid) with access to resources to help meet needs and achieve self-reliance.More at my site (in profile; no sales and low stylistic ambition), if you click on "Things I want to say" (about 1/2-way down), then "On peace amid commotion" (also about 1/2-way down), then skim that page and click at least the last link. Then read the entire page and click the links that seem most interesting.). We really can be OK despite things. (Thoughtful comments appreciated with any downvotes.)
