This holy Easter week is so very important and I pray that each of us are taking the time to think of our Savior and all that He has done for us. Thursday was a vitally important day in the last week of Christs life. It was today that he invited his apostles into the upper room to have his final meal. Here He instituted the blessing of the Sacrament and by so doing gave each of us the opportunity to renew our covenants with God and start fresh every week. I am eternally grateful for this gift, my life if so much more because I can rely on the Saviors atonement each week, each day.
After leaving this famous last supper our Savior and brother walked to the Garden of Gethsemane and changed the whole world. Everything had led up to this point and the entire future hinged on it. Jesus Christ offered Himself a sacrifice for sin. He suffered so that if we would repent we wouldn't have to suffer. This was the greatest act of love and it happened on Easter Thursday.
Are you thinking of Him?
I am grateful for my knowledge and testimony of the Saviors love for me. I testify that His only motivation was a sincere and unending love for you and me. I know that there is no way that I can ever pay him back for all that He is done for me, but I can love Him back! I can show that love through remembering Him, living the was He has asked, and standing as His witness. He lives, He loves, He is involved.
