Do you ask for a sign?

This last General Conference President Uchtdorf spoke on those that wait for miracles or fantastic signs to show them what to do:

"Nevertheless, there are some who feel that unless they have an experience similar to Saul’s or Joseph Smith’s, they cannot believe. They stand at the waters of baptism but do not enter. They wait at the threshold of testimony but cannot bring themselves to acknowledge the truth. Instead of taking small steps of faith on the path of discipleship, they want some dramatic event to compel them to believe.

"They spend their days waiting on the road to Damascus."

(President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "Waiting on the Road to Damascus."  April 2011 GC.)

I suggest we all make a closer examination of the talk because we can all learn from it.http://lds.org/general-conference/2011/04/waiting-on-the-road-to-damascus?lang=eng
