Random Scripture Day

Ether 12:4 "Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God."

During sophomore year, I was on a walk with a friend of mine. Her grandpa had just passed away that day, and many other things were going on that made everything feel so...hopeless. It was a dark, cold walk home by myself back to my house. Feeling really discouraged, I came upon this scripture during my reading that night. "...whoso believeth in God might with SURETY hope for a better world..." These words comforted me so much. Life is hard. We all face trials that make us want to give up. But, we know that there is a bright, eternal outcome. We know who wins the battle between good and evil. We know better than to give up.
