MTC week 6

Hello everyone. Elder Pettijohn here. So this week is just great. We had Dallen H. Oaks come speak to us on Tuesday for our devotional. He spoke mostly concerning missionary work and ways to better effectively conduct missionary work. but to our surprise these were the exact same things that our teachers had been telling us since we had been here. i testified to me that we had the best teachers we could possibly get. I underwent more grief this week. i was teaching an investigator again and we had for 4 weeks and he wasn't understanding what the Holy Ghost was. so i tried to expound onto him what i know and feel through the Holy Ghost but i did not know the words. it filled me with so much grief that i could not tell this man, this living soul in the way i desired that we know how to save him and bring him unto Christ. but i couldn't. i sobbed from this grief and understood through it that maybe i should strive harder in my learning and studies to become more wise and learned in the language and ways of the Lord. i hope and pray that each of you are safe and blessed where you are. God has a plan for each of you. even though you may not see or understand it now, it is there, and He is there to help you if you only come to him with a broken heart and a contrite spirit and real intent having faith in Christ that your prayer will be answered the Lord shall shew unto you what he wilt that thou to have. Thank you. All.
