Lately I've been reading the new Saints Volume the Church released. It is filled with chronological stories about the early stages of the truth. Reading that through and reading the scriptures, continuing in prayer has increased my testimony of the Restoration. All the little things help grow testimony. My testimony has been strengthened in a short amount of time because I allow the faith to grow and I trust in the Lord. I know Joseph Smith was a prophet and saw God The Father and Jesus Christ. Because of this testimony, everything else figures its self out, and I am able to trust fully in the Lord. I know that it is the small and simple things that strengthen us.
Alma 32:28 "Now, we will compare the word unto a seed. Now, if ye give place, that a seed may be planted in your heart, behold, if it be a true seed, or a good seed, if ye do not cast it out by your unbelief, that ye will resist the Spirit of the Lord, behold, it will begin to swell within your breasts; and when you feel these swelling motions, ye will begin to say within yourselves—It must needs be that this is a good seed, or that the word is good, for it beginneth to enlarge my soul; yea, it beginneth to enlighten my understanding, yea, it beginneth to be delicious to me."
Elder Poulsen
