Expect the best, then hunt for it with vigour.

God lies within you, waiting until you discover His presence―

Then, like the small child who discovers his father in hiding, with a glad cry you clasp your own.

It is as though you sit in the dark with an electric switch within arm's reach, which when touched would send a flood of light about you. 

The energetic, curious person, sitting so, would feel about, expecting to find the means of light, while the inert would sit quietly accepting the dark as inevitable―or lamenting loudly about his desolate condition. 

Expect the best, then hunt for it with vigour.
