Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people. (Proverbs 14:34). We are in nations where economically things are not going well; spiritually, people are just being religious & not righteous; mentally, people are sick because of the drug & substance abuse especially among the young people, financially, the dollar is difficult to get while prices of basic goods continue to go up.

The Holy Spirit, however, gives us new desires, helping us wanting to obey God. With new hearts, hearts of flesh & not hearts of stone, we will find that serving God is our greatest joy. Under God's new covenant, God's law is inside us & not outside, ie, on a tablet of stone. No, it's written in our hearts. It is no longer an external set of rules & principles.
