(#1-JTD)“I have come to know that the witness does not come by seeking after
signs. It comes through fasting and prayer, through activity and testing
and obedience. It comes through sustaining the servants of the Lord and
following them.” "The Spirit Beareth Record" By Boyd K. Packer General Conference April 1971 http://www.lds.org/general-conference/1971/04/the-spirit-beareth-record?lang=eng
(#2-JTD) “My point is to urge you to find ways to recognize and remember God’s kindness. It will build our testimonies. You may not keep a journal. You may not share whatever record you keep with those you love and serve. But you and they will be blessed as you remember what the Lord has done.” "O Remember, Remember" by Henry B. Eyring General Conference October 2007 http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2007/10/o-remember-remember?lang=eng

(#3-JTD)“Our testimony provides a guiding light that leads to a commitment which directs our conduct and our way of life. Our testimony is true north on a spiritual compass.” "The Importance of Receiving a Personal Testimony" by Robert D. Hales General Conference October 1994 https://www.lds.org/general-conference/1994/10/the-importance-of-receiving-a-personal-testimony?lang=eng
(#4-JTD)“The testimony received and carried within us enables us to hold a steady course in times of prosperity and to overcome doubt and fear in times of adversity.” "The Importance of Receiving a Personal Testimony" by Robert D. Hales General Conference October 1994 https://www.lds.org/general-conference/1994/10/the-importance-of-receiving-a-personal-testimony?lang=eng
(#5-JTD)“Testimony is not something you have today, and you are going to have always. A testimony is fragile. It is as hard to hold as a moonbeam. It is something you have to recapture every day of your life.” Harold B. Lee Church News, July 15, 1972 http://www.lds.org/churchhistory/presidents/controllers/potcController.jsp?leader=11&topic=testimony
(#6-JTD)“So why should we bear frequent and powerful testimony of Christ? Because doing so invites and becomes part of the divine power of testimony borne by God the Father and by the Holy Ghost, a testimony borne on wings of fire to the very hearts of investigators. Such a divine testimony of Christ is the rock upon which every new convert must build. Only this testimony of the atoning Anointed, Victorious One will prevail against the gates of hell.” "Missionary Work and the Atonement" by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland Ensign March 2001 https://www.lds.org/ensign/2001/03/missionary-work-and-the-atonement?lang=eng
(#7-JTD)“Keep the fire of your testimony of the restored gospel and your witness of our redeemer burning so brightly that our children can warm their hands by the fire of your faith.” "The Golden Years" by Boyd K. Packer General Conference April 2003 http://www.lds.org/general-conference/print/2003/04/the-golden-years?lang=eng
(#8-JTD)“Testimony isn’t something that you have today and you keep always. Testimony is either going to grow and grow to the brightness of certainty, or it is going to diminish to nothingness, depending upon what we do about it. I say, the testimony that we recapture day by day is the thing that saves us from the pitfalls of the adversary.” "Hold on a Little Longer" by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf Liahona January 2010 http://www.lds.org/liahona/2010/01/hold-on-a-little-longer?lang=eng
(#9-JTD)“A testimony is spiritual knowledge of truth obtained by the power of the Holy Ghost. Continuing conversion is constant devotion to the revealed truth we have received—with a heart that is willing and for righteous reasons.” "Converted unto the Lord" by Elder David A. Bednar General Conference October 2012 https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2012/10/converted-unto-the-lord?lang=eng
(#10-JTD) “Declaring our testimony of the gospel is good, but being a living example of the restored gospel is better. Wishing to be more faithful to our covenants is good; actually being faithful to sacred covenants—including living a virtuous life, paying our tithes and offerings, keeping the Word of Wisdom, and serving those in need—is much better. Announcing that we will dedicate more time for family prayer, scripture study, and wholesome family activities is good; but actually doing all these things steadily will bring heavenly blessings to our lives.” "Of Regrets and Resolutions" by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf General Conference October 2012 https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2012/10/of-regrets-and-resolutions?lang=eng
