Qualifying
for exaltation is like entering another country. We must each obtain
our spiritual passport. We do not set the requirements, but,
individually, we must meet all of them. The plan of salvation
contains all of the doctrines, laws, commandments, and ordinances
needed for all to qualify for exaltation. Then, “through the
Atonement of [Jesus] Christ, all mankind may be saved.” The Church
helps but cannot do it for us. Qualifying for exaltation becomes a
quest of a lifetime. - Allan F.
Packer, “The
Book,” Ensign (CR) November 2014

While
testimonies can come as dramatic manifestations, they usually do not.
Sometimes people think they need to have an experience like Joseph
Smith’s vision before
they gain testimonies. If we have unrealistic expectations of how, when,
or where answers come, we risk missing the answers which come as quiet,
reassuring
feelings and thoughts that most often come after our prayers, while we
are doing something else. These answers can be equally convincing and
powerful.
Over time we will receive answers and learn how inspiration comes. This is something each person learns for himself. – Allan F. Packer, “Finding Strength in Challenging Times!” Ensign (CR) May 2009
