This Easter I recall many Easter experiences that I had on my mission! Easter was always one of my favorite times to be a missionary, when I could run on the streets all day proclaiming that he has risen! The Son of God has broke the bands of death, He has conquered the grave, He has brought Salvation unto the children of men!
I love the hope of Easter! Easter puts behind all thoughts of doubt, disbelief, disspare, fear, uncertainty, anxiety, and hate and brings thoughts of light, hope, love, knowledge, purity, virtue, certainty, and Faith! Easter is the day to behind us anything that might be troubling us in our lives and turn it over to Christ! He has taken upon him all things that if we will but yolk ourselves to him, he will make our burdens light, give us strength and courage to overcome! Just as Christ on this Easter Sunday long ago left the empty tomb in glory never to return again so should we be willing to leave behind us the tombs of sin, tombs of fear, and never return again but be willing to move on in glory of progression! I am so grateful for the knowledge that i have of my Savior and that I can know that he lives today as well as 2000 years ago! I know that He is my Savior and the Son of the Living God! I know that He was the only one capable of performing the Atonement and the only one capable of rescuing us from the effects of the Fall!
This Easter I have the desire to have more Faith, to share more light, and whether symbolically or spiritually bring others to see the empty tomb of Christ and testify to them with all humility and Joy
HE IS RISEN
