Angel of Hope

In a world where hope is in short supply, and it's easy to get down because of all the chaos and evil, I turn to the scriptures; the Book of Mormon to be exact. There is a verse in Moroni that brings me comfort.

Moroni 7:41-

"And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise."

It is so easy to lose hope when your kids drive you crazy and you wonder how they will survive, spiritually, through the muddy waters in the world. I know that I worry all the time. But I also know that if I do all I can to teach my children what is right and wrong, and to be good people and followers of Christ, I can have faith in Heavenly Fathers plan that whatever happens in their life it will be for a purpose that is beyond my understanding; His purpose; to strengthen them and help them become more like Him.
