Faith and Power

I've been reading the Lectures On Faith and I found the following statement to be quite powerful:

"Let us here observe, that after any portion of the human family are made acquainted with the important fact that there is a God, who has created and does uphold all things, the extent of their knowledge respecting his character and glory will depend upon their diligence and faithfulness in seeking after him, until, like Enoch, the brother of Jared, and Moses, they shall obtain faith in God, and power with him to behold him face to face." - Joseph Smith, Lectures On Faith

This statement is so straightforward. Our knowledge of God is dependent upon our "diligence and faithfulness in seeking after [God]." This quest to know God's character and glory continues "until [we] obtain faith in God, and power with him to behold him face to face."

-Faith in God, and power with God- It is one of the main purposes of this life, that we may come to know our Father, enough to have faith in him, and power with him, so that one day we can see him face to face.
