Elder Logan Porter: Eggs, bunnies, and food coloring

This week was busy, long, fun, but super HOT!

We got to teach seminary, have Zone Conference, have interviews with the President, and have our Stake conference on Easter Sunday! There were so many wonderful things shared throughout all those meetings!

But I want to talk about the reason we are able to do what we do, and it’s the reason why we Celebrate Easter! The Atonement is the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Without these things there would be no point to this life. We would be hopeless, lost, and set up to fail, and fail miserably. Gods plan for us revolves around the Atonement. It’s the Key in the ignition that makes everything run. We have to keep everything clean and maintained and running properly. But the reason it works is the Atonement. So yesterday was Easter Sunday where we celebrate and Praise the Lord for Raising from the Dead to be joined with his body for eternity. Think about us, each one of us will experience this regardless of how we live our life. Each one of us will live for eternity. Our actions will determine where we will be once were resurrected. So let each one of us take a look at the Saviors life and how he lived... then align our lives with his. The only thing we can give him is our will. Everything else he has already given to us. The ONLY gift we can give is our will. Think about what that means. Ponder and think about that throughout the week and then act on your feelings and thoughts.

I remember every Year in school being so excited for summer and for school to be out… Now I’m dreading it! Summer brings hot weather and its already blazing hot so we will see how the summer goes!! I hope you all have a wonderful week! Be happy and Smile for HE IS RISEN!
