Our FHE Lesson: Hope

We showed the kids the video "A Mother's Hope" on mormonchannel.org Then we talked about Hope more in depth for Bo and I.

I had always understood Hope with "A hint of uncertainty" (Neil A Maxwell) I had always felt it was things like: I hope this snow stops or I hope this day gets better. But apparently it has a different meaning in the gospel: "When we have Hope, we trust God's promises. We have a quiet assurance that if we do 'the works of righteousness,' we 'shall receive our reward, even peace in this world, and eternal life in the world to come.'" (Neil A Maxwell)

This made me feel good because it made me realize I do have hope. I know that God will keep His promises if I keep mine. It also renewed my vigor to try harder because I know wonderful things await me if I do what's right.
