Week 3 1/2 MTC


August 13, 2013

Richard G. Scott came to the devotional tonight.  It was the coolest experience of my life.  The spirit was so strong the whole time.  He spoke on prayer, and he was so emotional the whole time.  You could tell how great of a relationship he had with his Father in Heaven through prayer.  I hope to be able to have that kind of a relationship someday. 
He told us about his mission, and he said he would wait until his companion would go to bed, and then he would go into another room and pray out loud in a quiet, but sincere voice.  He said he hated the feeling of being rushed through a prayer.  So he wouldn’t have his personal prayers with his companion because he would be too worried about who finishes first, and he couldn’t be sincere that way.  It was better how he told it, but it was really cool.  He said, “As we increase our dependability, he will increase our capability.”

He also gave us an Apostolic blessing to give us extra help with our language, but only through Faith. I seriously can’t tell you enough how amazing it was and how strong the spirit was.  After the closing prayer no one stood up.  Everyone sat quietly in their seats and waited for him to leave.  When he got half way, he turned around and yelled, “BE GOOD!”  Haha   It was awesome! Oh, and when he stood up, we all stood as he walked out.  Seriously amazing stuff.  He is my new favorite apostle!
I wish we could record those talks because they would be cool to watch again sometime.  It was also the first devotional that was broadcast to all of the MTC’s, so that’s pretty cool.  Well,  I just thought I would write you and tell you about it because I had such an amazing experience.  I love you guys.

Liefde,

Elder Hulet
