Easter the Season of Hope
~~Easter Time~~
This is the week of such special times,
This is the week we hear special chimes.
What a joy our hearts exclaim,
That our Savior has made his claim.
On You and On Me,
Where we can all forever Be.
Who could deny this amazing glow,
For our Lord just continues to show.
His Love for Us,
Without even a fuss.
Thank you Lord Jesus for coming to save,
In living and dying in true life you gave.
To know that you have given us Hope,
It only makes sense that in you we cope.
~~HE LIVES!- Happy Easter~~
Love The Mathison Family
Because of Him
Thank Goodness for Jesus Christ! Thank goodness for his Life! Thank Goodness for Easter and that He LIVES! Happy Week of Easter!

Inspirations By Tanya Nicole
Ascending:
~This is a place that is hard to revisit,
~This is a place that is hard to revisit,
An event that we would take back in a minute.
The name of this place is Caleb's Corner,
A spot in Nebraska that will always be in his honor.
What it looked like when Caleb ascended up above,
To the heavens that is filled with much love.
Perhaps this too may be what will take place,
When the Savior returns in full glory and grace.
What a joy it will be for everyone insight,
To be wrapped around this tremendous sunlight.
Near our Savior and the ones we love,
Will bring down all the reverence from above.~

Christmas with the Mathison's
What would we do, what would we say?
If Christ was born this very day?
Would we be embarrassed by the things we have done?
Or would we be distracted with things so-called fun?
Would we promptly run and share with delight,
Of his coming this very night?
He came to us though we may not believe,
But truly it is he bringing peace who grieve.
To give of the heart, to give of the soul,
Being like him, makes one whole.
Christmas Time is filled with delight,
In everything that is within our sight.
So Let us run from home to home,
Sharing this Love wherever we roam.
~May You and Your Family Be Filled with Christ's Love This Christmas Season.~

Letters of Gratitude for an Apostle of the Lord
- This is the time for us to be full of Thanksgiving! And we are full of THANKS for having one of the 12 Apostles come last month to speak to us. So we have written and sent Elder Ballard letters, in sharing our thoughts and feelings of gratitude for him. How Thankful we are for a Prophet of God and 12 living Apostles on earth today!
- -Thank You Elder Ballard! :)Love The Mathison Family

Find Time
“For the devil is stealing time, the time we would spend to wonder at spiritual things. Instead, we get so caught up in the things that 'seem' to matter, when all of us need to slow down and find a time to contemplate." -Apostle of the 12, Elder M. Russell Ballard
“A really strong message” of Mormonism “is that everyone’s a child of God — that they’re a sacred individual."

A Joyous Day
This morning we were blessed with the opportunity to receive a visit from an Apostle of the Lord Jesus, Elder M. Russell Ballard.
What a joy it was to see and be in the midst of a real Apostle. The chapel was filled to capacity, with eyes and hearts fixed on this Lord's anointed, with much eagerness to know what would be shared.
My heart burned within me, and my eyes flowed with tears as I listened and felt a closeness to my Savior . What a joy it was to hear the message that our Lord and God had for us today.
Our family is anxious and excited to put our faith into more actions- in words and deeds. With helping to build the kingdom of God here on earth- in continuing to serve with Caleb, whom is serving so valiantly already.
"The work is hastening", says Elder Ballard, "it is time for us to take a stronger stand for God, in these days where there is ever more evil against his work." Satan's target continues to remain the same, and has intensified- against his gospel and against families; for families are the key essential to his plan of happiness.
Our family has set a goal, to open our door, to open our hearts with sharing our love for the Savior Jesus Christ, for God's plan of eternal families- by sharing another testament of Jesus Christ with whom we are guided to by Christmas, even The Book of Mormon. A book that goes hand in hand with the Bible. Both reveal histories of prophets and people of different civilizations- two records both preach, teach, and most of all testify of the living Savior Jesus Christ. For the Bible was written in the land of Israel, and the Book of Mormon was written of the inhabitants of ancient America.
God Bless America, the land of the free.
