For the first time in my life I was not with my family for Easter. It was sort of a bitter sweet holiday. It was sort of sad not being with my family but on the upside I had so much fun with one of my close friends, Tawnette. I also had the wonderful opportunity to focus on the reason why we celebrate Easter. I had a chance to think about my Savior and all that he did for me, for all of us. I didn't really think about the Easter Bunny or about candy too much. I was too focused on having fun and my Savior, Jesus Christ.
Tawnette and I had lots of fun going to dances, shopping, tanning, making dinner, dying eggs, studying, going to church, hanging with friends and doing an Easter egg hunt. We had so much fun and we laughed a lot. I loved going to church with her because they had some really great speakers and the Relief Society lesson was amazing.
I also felt so inclined to watch the movie called "Finding Faith in Christ". This movie was about how we find faith and about who Christ was and what he did on the Earth. It also talked about the Resurrection. I love the spirit that the movie invites. I can say that by watching that movie and studying Christ's life in the scriptures has really built my testimony. I can say and love to say that I KNOW that Jesus Christ LIVES. He was resurrected and he has a body just as real as you and I. I love my elder brother, Jesus Christ for all that he did for me and the rest of the world. I'm so greatful for the Atonement and the role that it plays in my life. I say these things in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Happy Easter!
