Spring is Coming

Guess what! What? Spring is here! Really? Yes indeed, you excited? I guess. What do you mean you guess? Well, I guess I just don't see what is so special about Spring. It just start to get hot and all the good holidays are over. What do you mean all the good holidays are over?! Well, Christmas is over. So what! What do you mean so what?! So what if Christmas is over, we still have Easter coming up! What is so special about Easter? WHAT?!?!?!?! I can't believe you don't know what is so special about Easter! I just don't see what is so special about a big bunny hiding eggs. My friend, my friend, there is so much more to Easter than that. Why don't you tell me then. Oh I will! Easter is not about some bunny or eggs. Easter is the time that we celebrate the death and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ! We remember the pain and afflictions he went through in the garden of Gethsemane and on the cross. Even more, the day when his spirit was reunited with his body and conquered physical death! What he did for us so we could return to live with our Heavenly Father once again! The love and mercy our Savior showed us that day. That is what Easter is all about and there is no one who can tell my otherwise! WOW! I never though of Easter that way before! That makes me a lot more excited for Spring now! If that is what Easter means to you, I wonder what an apostle of Jesus Christ thoughts on Easter would be, hmmm. That is funny you say that, just to above you is a great video clip of Elder Jeffrey R. Holland (Quorum of the Twelve Apostles) and his thoughts on Easter. Go ahead and watch it. It is amazing! I will, thank you so much for clarifying the true meaning of Easter for me! Anytime my friend! If you have any other questions just shoot me a message on facebook! God Bless!
