The Atonement

At the end of this Easter Sunday, I found myself thinking of this painting by Carl Bloch currently on display at the BYU Museum of Art. It really touched me when I viewed it some months ago.

I may not understand just how the atonement took place, but I do know that I have felt the peace it has brought to my life as I have laid burdens at the Savior's feet. It brings me comfort to see this representation of an angel providing comfort to my Savior. A year ago this video with thoughts by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland brought pause on an Easter Sunday.

I know that my Savior lives!
