I am grateful for the moon and stars to light up the dark sky at night. They are also so pretty to look up at, especially on a clear night.

226. Today I am grateful for Easter Sunday

I personally view Easter as the most sacred holiday we observe. Some say that Christmas is too commercialized but I view Easter as the most commercialized holiday, if it were not for Easter, we would not have Christmas. I do enjoy Easter egg hunts, egg decorating, cute little bunnies and of course chocolate; however, I personally like to keep this separate from my observance of Easter Sunday.

I am grateful for the resurrection, to know that the Savior lives and the promise he gives that each one of us will be resurrected as well.

225. Today I am grateful for the atonement

In this Easter season I am grateful for the atonement. Because of the atonement I can be forgiven of my sins, I can receive peace in knowing that Christ carried my burdens and comfort in knowing that I can return to live in the presence of Him and our Father in Heaven.

224. Today I am grateful for the restoration of the Gospel

Today marks the 182nd anniversary of the organization of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Also know by members as a restoration of the Church established by Jesus Christ when he lived upon the earth. The story of Joseph Smith’s vision and the restoration is a remarkable story. I know that God is a God of miracles and that through the restoration; God continues to speak through prophets as he did in days of old.

If you would like to know about this restoration I invite you to watch this video:

I don’t think I will ever be able to take the ability for a full night’s sleep for granted again.
