We Learn to teach by study and also by faith
Principle 2: We must seek to obtain the word.
D&C 11:21
It is important for missionaries to study and ponder the scriptures before we go out and teach. Missionaries need to seek to obtain every words by spirit. To study by spirit means to study the scriptures through the Holy Ghost as we keep pondering and praying. I think to obtain the words means that we know the words through spirit, not just memorize the words. This will help the investigators have a better understanding of our messages.
D&C 42:14
As we study the scriptures, we will receive the spirit through pondering and praying. If we do not receive the spirit, we should keep pondering and praying until we receive it. We do not go out teach without spirit. We should have the principles and doctrines in mind along with spirit, so that we can share our experiences and feelings with investigators.
Principle 3: We obtain the word by study and by preparing to teach the restored gospel.
D&C 88:118
We should enjoy reading scriptures, not just think it is a duty. We need to be want to read, not have to read. If we read scriptures just as a duty, then we lose the spirit and the faith. If we lose spirit and faith, then we lose blessings from reading scriptures. If we study by faith, our mind will be clear, and we will be able to understand the words through the feeling from our heart. We will also learn and benefit from the study.
D&C 109:7
Missionaries need to learn some good methods or strategies to study scriptures. When we read scriptures, we need to look for principles, mark them down, apply to our own life, think some experience that can related to the principle. Also, missionaries need to learn how to plan lessons. We need to be prepared to go out and teach. We need to do our part first, which is a make lesson plan, be ready to share. Then, the spirit will guide us to teach. The spirit will not help us if we do not do our part.

We learn to teach by study and also by faith
Principle 1:Prayer and Pondering the scriptures help prepare us to receive the influence of the Holy Ghost.
1 Nephi 11:1
Holy Ghost is the most important help for missionaries to preach the gospel. How can we invite the Holy Ghost to be with us? First, I think obeying the Lord's commandments is important for us to receive the Holy Spirit. For missionaries, it is important to obey the mission rules in order to invite the spirit. Then, along with the obedience, prayer and pondering the scriptures can also help us receive the Holy Ghost.
Alma 5:46
Pray is the way we can communicate with Heavenly Father. Heavenly Father will send us the Holy Ghost to let us know what to do. We need to pray for help, for the Holy Ghost. Also, fasting is a good way to get the Holy Ghost from our Heavenly Father. I have testimony that fasting is powerful. Everything will work out just perfectly as we fast and pray to Heavenly Father, asking for help.

Teaching by the Spirit
Principle 3: Missionary should practice methods of teaching that edify.
2 Nephi: 33:1
Missionaries have to teach in a way that edifies. We can ask the investigators questions, watch their reactions, let them involve in studying together, instead of just teaching. Also, as a missionary, part of our job is to help the investigators feel the spirit. Discuss with them of their feeling about the restored gospel. The spirit can help missionaries remember the things that need to teach, it also helps the investigators to understand the discussion. The Holy Ghost can carry the message into investigators' heart, so that they will feel peaceful and joyful.
D&C 50:13-14
Missionaries will be ordained to preach gospel by the spirit. The Holy Ghost will be with missionaries to help them teach the truth. If we do not teach in Heavenly Father's way, which is teaching by the spirit, then it is not God. I think God's way is always better than our own ways. The Lord has provided us many ways to invite the spirit: pray, study scriptures, bear testimony, pondering every word, live the commandments...All these things can help us become more spiritual, become a good missionary.

The Companionship of the Holy Ghost
Principle 1: There are many ways that the Holy Ghost influences our lives for good.
1 Nephi 4:6
Lehi went back to Jerusalem to get the plate from Laban. He did not know what he should do to get the plate, but he was led by the spirit. The spirit that he felt was the Holy Ghost. Because of that spirit, he felt confident to go back without any fear. I have been experienced the same feeling many times just like Nephi experienced. The Holy Ghost is real, it leads me and guides me, it really gives me direction to help me overcome difficulty. Sometimes, when I have challenges, I do not know what to do next. However, I know that the Holy Ghost is going to help me, so I do not need to worry too much.
2 Nephi 32:5-8
Heavenly Father sent Jesus Christ to the earth to help us. We learn from the scriptures and all the prophets that the Gospel is true, Jesus is the Christ. I think the most important learning is from the Holy Ghost. Heavenly Father also sent the Holy Ghost to help us better understand the Gospel. Some people may not believe what the scripture or the prophets said, but because of the Holy Ghost, they do believe what they really feel. If they believe what they feel is true, then it will be easier for them to believe what the scripture or prophets said is also true.
Principle 2: Sensitivity and Obedience to the Spirit is One of a Missionary's Greatest Resources.
2 Nephi 33:1
Holy Ghost is important for missionary to share the gospel with the investigators. Missionary do not know everything about the gospel. They cannot teach the investigators everything about it. Missionaries are sent to teach investigators, they are also sent to learn more knowledge of the Gospel. But because of the Holy Ghost, missionary can teach by the spirit. The spirit will help the investigators learn and understand. Like the scripture says, "The Holy Ghost carrieth it unto the hearts of the children of men."
D&C 43:15-16
I think it is important to invite the spirit when sharing the Gospel with investigators. The spirit can help missionary teach what is more meaningful for the investigators. More important, the investigators can also feel the spirit. It might be hard for them to believe your lesson unless they feel the spirit. The first time when I had discussion with missionary, I did not care about what they said. I did not really want to know and learn about it until I felt the spirit during one of our discussions. The spirit was very strong, I feel that it was true. If we can let the investigators feel the spirit, then they will have the desire to learn.

The Companionship of the Holy Ghost
Principle 1: The light of Christ is a power for good in the lives of all people.
Moroni 7:16-19
The light of Christ is also called the spirit of Christ. We all receive the light to help us feel and choose the right from evil. It is a little bit different from the Holy Ghost. Everybody will receive the light of Christ, as they follow the light, they will be led to Christ. As we receive the light of Christ, we should always choose the right, believe in Christ.
D&C 84:46-47
I remember the first time I met the missionary, I really felt something that different, something that I never felt before. I did not know what that feeling was. Now as I look back, I think that feeling was the light of Christ. I was not a member of the Church, but I still felt the spirit.
The light of Christ is given to everybody on the earth, no matter you are a member or not. Because I follow that light or spirit, and developed my faith in Christ, I got baptized and received the Holy Ghost. I know that the light of Christ is true, it is a special spirit for everybody from the God. As we follow the spirit, we will be able to choose right things.
Principle 2: The Holy Ghost is a member of the Godhead.
3 Nephi 28:11
The Holy Ghost is a great gift from the God. Everybody receive it after baptize. The Holy Ghost plays an important role in our lives. It leads and guides us to choose right and do the right things. It is just amazing when I sit in the sacrament meeting, listen to the music, or listen to the talks, feeling the spirit. I know that without the Holy Ghost, I will not be able to feel the spirit. I know that it is a gift from our Heavenly Father. The Holy Ghost will always be with us if we keep all the commandments and stay worthy.
D&C 130:22
The Holy Ghost is different from our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. The difference is that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ have body of flesh and bones, but Holy Ghost does not have.
It is a spirit that we can feel. As we keep the commandments, we will be able to feel the Holy Ghost and be guided by the Holy Ghost.

Personal Worthiness 2
September 10, 2008
Personal Worthiness
Principle: 1. Personal worthiness allows prospective missionaries to obtain temple blessings.
D&C 109:22-23
The temple is the house of the Lord. It is a very special and spiritual place. We need to be worth in order to enter the temple. We will receive many blessings from the temple if we are worthy. On the other hand, people who enter the temple unworthily will receive condemnation. The spirit will only be with those people who are clean. We do not want the bad spirit to be in the temple. It is important to become worthy before enter the temple.
D&C 110:7-9
To get the endowment in the temple requires personal worthiness. The endowment is a great gift and blessing from our Heavenly Father. The endowment will bless missionary, and guide them to teach. Also, it will protect the missionaries from danger. I think the temple blessings is only for those who are worthy. As we preparing for the mission, we should stop sin and repent to become worthy. If we do so, we will always feel the spirit and be blessed.
Principle: 2.Repentance is a cleansing process that allows us to become worthy.
1 John 1:5-10
Repentance is an important principle to help us become clean and worthy. Jesus came to the earth, suffered and died to pay for our sins. Through his sacrifice and atonement, we are able to repent. Everybody on the earth makes mistakes, we should be grateful for Jesus Christ's sacrifice and atonement. Without him, we will not be able to repent.
Mosiah 26:29
To repent, I think we must admit that we have sins first, then we repent. If we just lie our sins, and do not repent, we will not be forgiven. After we die, we will be judged according to the sins which we have committed. Instead, if we admit our sins and repent, Heavenly Father will forgive us. We will become clean again.

Chapter 2: Personal Worthiness
Principle: Personal worthiness is necessary to accomplish missionary work.
D&C 38:42/133:5
We need to prepare ourselves to be clean, be worthy enough to serve mission. This is the work
of the Lord. We must be pure in order to have the spirit with us all the time to represent the
Lord. Everybody makes mistake, but as missionary, we should repent , keep our thoughts clean,
keep all the commandments in order to serve mission. Teaching by spirit is a great help during
mission. Missionaries will have hard time to teach without the spirit. In order to invite the spirit
to be with us, we must be clean and worthy. This will also bring us the greatest joy.
D&C 121:45
To prepare for mission, we must keep the law of charity all the time. This is one of the
commandments that Heavenly Father has given us. Our mind should be filled with virtue
garnish. We should repent for all our sins. We can only have spirit to help us sharing the gospel
with others if we keep the law of charity. I know that as we do so, the Lord will bless us.

Called to Serve 2
(1 Nephi 6:4, 22:4)
(D&C 29:27, 11:15,64:29)
(Alma 42:31)
These scriptures talk about the missionary work is the work for the Lord. All missionaries are called by the Lord through his authorized servants. The Lord loves and cares all his children. He wants all his children to have the opportunity to hear about the gospel. I think that is why he ask members to go out and share. We have the opportunity to know and share the gospel. This is the work of the Lord. We should work hard and do our best to let more people join the church. It is not just an assignment, it is also a great blessing. Some people think that two years mission is a big sacrifice, I think it is the greatest blessing. The blessings that we will receive during mission is much more worthy than the sacrifice.

Called to Serve
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. (Mark 16:15) The Lord is asking to share the restored gospel to all his children. As I read this scripture today, I feel very grateful for the opportunity that I was able to hear about the gospel. I am grateful for our savior Jesus Christ and all missionaries. Here is the true restored gospel now, we as a member of the Church, have the responsibility and the opportunity to share with all children of the God. Jesus Christ spends all his life preaching the gospel. Comparing to him, two years is not too bad. The blessings will come to us as we sharing the gospel with others.
(D&C 11:3, 33:3) This scripture talks about "the field is white enough to harvest". The Lord is actually telling us that many people are ready to hear and accept the gospel. For me, the word "white" means that they are preparing and getting worthy enough to be baptized. Now, we have the truth gospel, we also have many children of the God that are ready to hear and accept. What we need is lots of missionaries, to go out and preach, teach all the nations, all the children of the God. I remember how I met the missionaries, and how wonderful job the missionary did on me. I accept the gospel, joined the church, and have been blessed a lot. Without missionaries, I won't know the gospel, I won't be here. That is one of the reason why I decide to go serve my mission.

2008年9月2日星期二
As I read my Scripture(1 Nephi 1-7) today, I found many things that could apply to our own lives.
Lehi prayed to the Lord, and the Lord has come unto him, give him a book to read. As he read the book and follow the spirit, he was blessed. In our daily lives, as we keep reading the scriptures, and keep all the commandants, we will be blessed as well. The scripture is one of the way to get spirit. I have testimony that reading scriptures can bring us joy, give us more knowledge about Heavenly Father.
Some miracles happened in these scriptures. Heavenly Father helped Lephi get the record of the Jews and his forefathers genealogy from Laban, even though Laban had fifty. It is just amazing that so many miracles happened. I have seen and experienced many miracles in my own life. The fact that I am here in the US, studying at BYU-Hawaii is a miracle for me. I am from mainland China where does not have real church. I went to Utah to study English and met the missionary there. I have been blessed in so many ways since I joined the church. My life just changed. I know that Heavenly Father lives, he is watching each of us and try to help us. He is the one who makes miracles happen to us.
I like the scripture " O that thou mightest be like unto this river, continually running into the fountain of all righteousness". (1 Nephi 2:9) We should keep doing our best, keeping all the commandments. As we do so, we will be blessed.
