December 21st
The morning of Christ's resurrection was the brightest morning in all history: a time of transcendent joy following the gloom of the crucifixion. The words of the angel still echo down the centuries undiminished. He is risen. Those words signaled more than the triumph of a God. They proclaimed the victory of life over death. As we celebrate Christmas, we also celebrate the free gift of immortality for all mankind.
Scripture
Matthew 28:1-6, Isaiah 25:8
Suggestion
Read the accounts of the resurrection in the four Gospels and 3 Nephi. Record your feelings in your journal. (Matt. 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, John 20 & 3 Nephi 11)
Song
He is Risen, Hymn #199
