It is hard to repent, to admit you are wrong on faith alone before the evidence of a feeling of being forgiven and light comes.
More Quotes from Henry B. Eyring:
Even before baptism, a child or an adult can have the Holy Ghost testify to their hearts of sacred truth. They must act on that testimony to retain it, but it will guide them toward goodness.Henry B. Eyring
The Lord will always prepare a way for you to escape from the trials you will be given if you understand two things. One is that you need to be on the Lords errand. The second thing you need to understand is that the escape will almost never be out of the trial it will usually be through it.
Henry B. Eyring
You can test what we have talked about today. Just try two things. Listen for the whisperings of the Spirit and then commit to obey.... God will take advantage of that if you let Him.

... the enemy of righteousness also works in little steps, so small that they are hard to notice if you are thinking only about yourself and how great you are. Just as truth is given to us line upon line and the light brightens slowly as we obey, even so, as we disobey our testimony of truth lessens almost imperceptibly, little by little, and darkness descends so slowly that the proud may easily deny that anything is changing.
Henry B. Eyring
As you start to write, you could ask yourself, 'How did God bless me today' If you do that long enough and with faith, you will find yourself remembering blessings. And sometimes, you will have gifts brought to your minds which you failed to notice during the day, but which you will then know were a touch of God's hand in your life.
