MormonTimes.com: Testimonies don't come on demand
A teenage girl we know went to EFY (Especially for Youth) last summer and enjoyed the whole experience except for one long, awkward moment. "They gathered us in a circle and then asked everyone to share the deepest, most profound spiritual experiences we had in obtaining our testimony."
You can imagine how dismayed she felt, because ... she had never had any. "I have a testimony," she said, "but it just ... grew. There wasn't a single dramatic moment to tell about."
So you can imagine how delighted she was at this last general conference, when in the Sunday afternoon session Elder Carlos A. Godoy spoke about being in exactly that situation.
