Quote by Neil T. Anderson
“Many people today believe their marriage is hopeless. Their solution? Change spouses! If their job is miserable, they change jobs! And if their church has problems, they switch churches! Running away from difficult situations is not where our hope lies. God's plan is that we "hang in there" and grow up. Our hope lies in proven character, not in favorable circumstances. Hope based in favorable circumstances will always disappoint, but when based on the love of God and our proven character, we will never be disappointed. Even so, we should be aware of false hopes. God never promised that everything would turn out exactly as we would like. Our hope is not in believing that life should be smooth sailing, and if things are rough right now, they'll be better in the morning. Our hope lies in the fact that God will make us better people and conform us to His image through our difficult circumstances.”
