Perfect Brightness of Hope


2 Nephi 31:20

20 Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.

I notice as I grow closer to Heavenly Father, my hope grows perfect in Him. I can more readily see possibilities in things that maybe at one point looked like gigantic barriers.  My imagination for what my future could bring and how things might even come to pass is so much more expansive.  I really do believe that with God, anything is possible.   He is creative, all knowing, loving and perfect.  What is it about those qualities that would not bring a surge of hope despite any set of unfortunate events.  I hope because of Him.  I know the power of God is real.  I can feel it in my heart.  I can tell when He is close and how my hope in all things grows brighter when I rely on him.
