Happy Easter...





Easter came so fast this year that I feel like I haven't really had the time to sit down and think about why we really celebrate Easter.  Even though the bunnies, candies, and baskets are so much fun I want everyone to remember why we really celebrate Easter.  This year during the morning session of Conference Jeffrey R. Holland gave an amazing talk on Christ and what he truly did for us.  He said, "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."  What an amazing and powerful statement for those who are having a rough time these days.  We just need to remember that we aren't alone.  You have to watch this video that was made from his talk.  SO SO amazing!! 


Throughout your Easter celebrations tomorrow, try and remember about the sacrifice Christ made for us and that we are never alone.  =)
