Easter Sunday was just wonderful this year. As a family we love any opportunity to turn our hearts and minds to the things that matter most. We are all so very grateful for a Savior, for his sacrifice, his example and all that he continually does for us. Celebrating Him brings us peace, happiness and joy and immeasurable feelings of gratitude.
“…Because our Savior lives, we do not use the symbol of His death as the symbol of our faith. But what shall we use? No sign, no work of art, no representation of form is adequate to express the glory and the wonder of the Living Christ. He told us what that symbol should be when He said, ‘If ye love me, keep my commandments’ (John 14:15). As His followers, we cannot do a mean or shoddy or ungracious thing without tarnishing His image. Nor can we do a good and gracious and generous act without burnishing more brightly the symbol of Him whose name we have taken upon ourselves. And so our lives must become a meaningful expression, the symbol of our declaration of our testimony of the Living Christ, the Eternal Son of the Living God”
