He is Risen

 I know this isn't the best picture it's kind of blurry due to me resizing, anyway, It is Easter Sunday today! And of course we had Jana and the kids here and we had ham, and potatoes, and tons of food and hunted for Easter Eggs. But Easter to me is SO much more than that! It is one of the days that I truly focus my thoughts and attention to the Savior.  I know I should do it more....But I am so grateful that the Savior my big brother Jesus Christ came down to earth to teach and establish His church, and then suffer the atonement and make it possible for us to return to our Heavenly Father. Now as most of you know I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (AKA Mormon) so we as member while we do acknowledge his death and suffering, we focus more on His Resurrection. He overcame physical and spiritual death and by doing he made it possible for us to return to Him and our Heavenly Father. I love my Savior and am eternally thankful for his Sacrifice and love for me! (As well as all of you) so I would like to close this entry with the lyrics of one of my favorite hymns (it is my Favorite Easter Hymn)

"He is Risen, He is Risen, Tell it out with Joyful lay, He has burst his three day Prison, Let the whole wide World Rejoice, Death is conquered, Men is Free, Christ has won the Victory.


Come with High and Holy Hymning, Chant our Lords Triumphant lay, Not one Darksome cloud is dimming, Yonder glorious morning ray, Breaking o'er the purple east, Symbol of our Easter Feast.


He is Risen, He is Risen, He hath opened Heaven's gate, We are free from sins dark prison, Risen to a holier state, and a brighter Easter beam, On our longing eyes shall stream."
