Look Up, My Soul

Description

In this book, Gerald N. Lund talks about hope a fundamental but often overlooked virtue. He talks about the realities of life in our day, the reasons many of us lack hope, and the need for hope in our time. He shares insights on such questions as: What is hope? How does hope relate to faith and charity? How do we gain, strengthen, and maintain hope, especially in times of despair? What role does the Savior play in our efforts to develop hope? What are the divine promises in which we can trust to foster hope? Elder Lund also includes many stories from Church history, from his own life, and from the lives of acquaintances to illustrate his insights. He helps us recognize that hope is more than an attitude of good cheer and more than a generalized faith in God. It is an abiding trust that God fulfills His divine promises to us.
