The bible says, "Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect" Romans 12:2 It's clearly says that true transformation doesn't begin outside apperance but begins from the inside being and that is through renewing our minds. When our mind is renewed, it will birth out new life.

To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. [Colossians 1:27]
Know that our gkorious hope we can have doesn't come from the outside of us. It doesn't come from anything or anyone around us. It comes from the inside of us. It comes from the One who lives inside of you. So obviously if it comes from the inside you, it signifies understanding about the One who lives on the inside you.
In Isaiah 60:1-3, also implies the message to us.
1Arise, shine.
For your light has come!
And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you.
3 The Gentiles shall come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.
It says that our light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon us. who is that glory that has risen upon us? It is Christ living on the inside of us. He is the hope of glory risen upon us.
So, our glorious hope in this darkness days comes from the understanding that the Lord is in us. Know that through Christ's sacrificed body and shedding of His blood we were made holy and justified freely by His grace (see Heb10:10,Rom.3:24). Know that it is by the love of God the reason why He was inspired to do all of this (see Rom.5:8). It's because God is love, without the love of God it is all impossible
So, our glorious hope is understanding that the love of God has been poured out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit who has given to us. If it is in you, you are already complete. You have everything you need.
Your light has come because the glory of the Lord has risen upon you through Christ living on the inside you. Darkness shall cover the earth and deep darkness the people, but the Lord will arise over you. Gentiles shall come to your light and the kings to the brightness of your rising!
