Ways to Build a Strong Testimony

How can we gain and maintain the foundation needed to survive spiritually? May I offer three guidelines to help.

1. Prayer. When we remember that each of us is literally a spirit daughter or son of God, we will not find it difficult to approach HIM in prayer. He knows us; He loves us; He wants what is best for us.

2. Scriptures. Spending time each day in scripture will strengthen our foundations of faith and our testimonies of truth.

3. Service. There are others who need you help. In the Book of Mormon we read of noble kKing Benjamin. He declared: "When ye are in the service of you fellowmen beings, ye are only in the service of your God" (Mosiah 2:17).

We can fortify our foundation of faith,our testimonies of truth, so tat we will not falter, we will not fail.
