Happy Easter!

Today I feel extremely grateful for the knowledge that I have of the Savior and of his ministry here on this earth. Sometimes (most of the time) I feel I fall short of all that is required of me on this earth, but I am grateful to remember that through Jesus Christ I can be made perfect and return to my Father in Heaven. I am grateful for the example He is and was on this earth. I am thankful that I have the opportunity to continually better myself and try to be more like Him. I know that He died and bled for me personally so I could repent and return to my Father in Heaven and live with him again. I am so grateful for the gift of the resurrection that was not just extended to Jesus Christ but that will be extended to all of us. I am grateful for my membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I am grateful that I have grown up knowing the answers to the questions that so many people go through this life not knowing. I am grateful that this Easter holiday reminds me of the sacrifices the Savior made for us, and that it gives me the opportunity to thank Him more fully for all the blessings I receive in my life as result. I know that my redeemer lives. I know that he passed below all things and died for every man and women on this earth. I know that He was resurrected and that He lives today and loves us all, and knows us by name. I wish you all the peace, love, joy, and happiness that this holiday brings. Happy Easter!

I really loved reading this on Easter. This is such a neat way to to bare your testimony. Thanks for strengthening mine. Love you!

BTW: that was the best pic I got of us. For some reason I could not get a good one.
