What I Learned From Peter

My mom flew in this weekend to see my sister perform in the Mesa Easter Pageant. 


I'm so glad we went. And not just because it's good to support your family (Lauren was great!). I was reminded of a lot of important things. Most importantly, I was reminded of the reality that the Savior lives. That he lived and died and lived again for us.

While I was watching, I thought about how Peter and the other disciples didn't comprehend that Christ was going to be resurrected, despite all that they had been taught. It seems silly almost. You've been taught so much, but you don't even realize the magnitude of Christ's sacrifice. But then I thought, neither do I. I have been taught so much. I have been blessed to have the scriptures, modern day prophets, and many teachers who have preached to me of Christ, and I still don't get it all. I don't think I understand yet how powerful the atonement is. I'm working on it. 

In the mean time, I am grateful for what I do know, and that I can keep learning, now and for eternity.
