The past few days I didn’t finish adding the Emily Belle Freeman Easter videos of daily Easter Traditions. Life just got really full of all my responsibilities, so I had to drop some stuff. I was enjoying a festival of Easter with my family. I prayed that whoever came looking here for the rest of the videos was able to find them with the search function in the upper right of this page. If you still want to watch them, they are here. Easter is over, but the videos are beautiful. You can feel the Holy Spirit as you watch them any time of year.

I enjoyed bingeing on all things Easter last week. So now I’m basking in the post-Easter glow, just like I do with Christmas. Here are some of the videos I loved and learned from, below. So, if you are like me and want to keep enjoying Easter vibes, I hope you will watch these and learn and delight in the truths shared therein. I immensely loved our church service on Easter Sunday. One of the speakers was a young man who is about to embark on serving a mission in Paraguay for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He shared that Easter is an especially wonderful time for his family. He said that about ten years ago, his dad proposed marriage to this stepmom. Then a year later after that, his stepmom and his dad announced that she was expecting a baby. Up until then he had been an only child. He was so excited to finally get a sibling! Now it’s 10 years later and this Easter marks a milestone for him as he got to speak about leaving on a mission on Easter Sunday.

So his story reminded me of my story that has involved Easter. It was three years ago right around Easter that I felt super low due to a family member’s poor choices. Now here we are three years later, around Easter, and the situation has completely turned 180 for good. My own Easter miracle! It gives me hope that may more miracles are possible.

I love that in the video below, Jared Halverson says that that is part of the Easter message. We can know that Something Better is to come, because death is not the end, because Jesus broke the bondage of death. Whatever seems dead in our life right now, will somehow become better with Jesus.

Of all the videos I watched, this one below was my favorite, with John Hilton III, explaining what was involved with Jesus dying on the cross. Brother Hilton shares that it was such an important part of the atonement. It’s just so beautiful. In the video, he tells a story of a young woman with a traumatic past of sexual abuse. He says that after looking at a picture of the crucifixion of Jesus, she said that God understands her. He also pointed out that Enoch, in the Pearl of Great Price, was told in Moses 7, when Enoch was in the depths of despair after not being able to get the people to listen to his preaching, he was told to look at an image. What was the image? It was Jesus on the cross. Wow. I had never picked up on that before. It’s just amazing to think that when Moses was feeling soooo sad, he shown Jesus on the cross, not in the Garden of Gethsemane. This is something to ponder for sure.

Then this one by Lili De Hoyos Anderson, I absolutely love. Easter is especially meaningful to her after the death of her husband. She shares such tender emotions and rock-solid testimony of the hope that comes in Jesus that she will see her husband again.

Happy post-Easter days to you all! If you want to feel more of the hope that comes from Jesus, I invite you to read the scriptures (Bible, Book of Mormon, Pearl of Great Price, and Doctrine and Covenants, found here) as well as all the stories about miracles I have gathered in my Family Devotionals Ebook here, in the April section. Go here for that.
