Jesus Christ

Today is Palm Sunday, and this is the week of the Last Supper, and when Christ suffered in the Garden of Gethsemane, and was hung on the Christ and died for us. He rose from the dead and lives for us. It's a sacred week, because it is the week of the Atonement. The Lord loves us; his desire is to help us return home and to have joy. I had never really thought about what this week meant before, Easter really was just a holiday to me. I mean I knew it was the day of the Lords resurrection, but the meaning of it never hit me until today when one of the sisters in the Branch, Beth, bore her testimony and talked about what occurred during this week, during the time of Christ. I've realized how sacred this time is, and I feel more appreciation for Easter time, for the Lord. After church I went on a little drive and took pictures of the sunset, and I felt very close to the Lord; grateful for his creations, for his love, and his help throughout my life. I felt like that moment was just between me and the Lord. The sunset was beautiful, it looked as I felt in my heart. I want to try to focus on the Lord and His atonement this week.
