Why I love easter...

I love Easter for the sole reason of celebrating the life and resurrection of MY savior, Jesus Christ.

This year, being without the "fluff" of Easter (i guess that happened when you have no kids and are being frugal) I really got to think about why this day is truly meant to be celebrated.

Throughout the day I have been touched through listening to the primary children sing about the Savior and teaching our 8 year old primary class to reflecting on his life.

I truly stand amazed at his sacrifice for ME and for all. I just want to express how grateful I am for Christ's love for each of us and his ultimate sacrifice of dying for each of us and then his insurmountable gift of his Resurrection... HE LIVES!

Elder Holland puts my feelings and thoughts much better... please watch this beautiful message...



"One of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so." -Elder Jeffery R. Holland
