Write a “recipe” for a testimony. For example, the “ingredients” of the recipe could be truths that make up our testimonies. The “instructions” for the recipe could be things we need to do to gain a testimony.
Elder Uchtdorf said this about what we need to develop a testimony:
“First: Desire to believe. The Book of Mormon encourages us: ‘If [you] will awake and arouse your faculties, even to an experiment upon my words, and exercise a particle of faith, … even if [you] can no more than desire to believe’ (Alma 32:27). … God promises us divine help even if we have only a desire to believe, but it has to be a true and not a pretended desire.
“Second: Search the scriptures. Have questions; study them out; search in the scriptures for answers. Again, the Book of Mormon has good advice for us: ‘If [you] give place, that a seed may be planted in your heart’ through diligent study of the word of God, the good seed ‘will begin to swell within your breasts’ if you will not resist with unbelief. This good seed will ‘enlarge [your] soul’ and ‘enlighten [your] understanding’ (Alma 32:28).
“Third: Do the will of God; keep the commandments. … We need to come to Christ and follow His teachings. The Savior taught: ‘My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine’ [John 7:16–17; italics added]. …
“Fourth: Ponder, fast, and pray. To receive knowledge from the Holy Ghost, we must ask Heavenly Father for it [see Alma 5:45–46; Moroni 10:3–4]” (“The Power of a Personal Testimony,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2006, 38–39).
