How do we live during this unsettling time? Is God still God? Can we children of God practice what we preach as in the times of relative peace?

Jesus comforted and warned His beloved disciples (including us) just hours before He died:

I have told you these things so that you will be whole and at peace.
In this world, you will be plagued with times of trouble, but you need not fear;
I have triumphed over this corrupt world order.
