But Alma said unto him: Thou hast had signs enough; will ye tempt your God? Will ye say, Show unto me a sign, when ye have the testimony of all these thy brethren, and also all the holy prophets? The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.
No matter where we look in the heavens and in the natural world, we can see signs of the existence of God. Yet, I think that the greatest sign of the existence of God is in our own hearts. Most all of us have had experiences where we have felt God's presence, power, and love. I, personally, have seen at least two miracles that I can think of off the top of my head (a father's blessing and the midnight miracle, in case I want to refresh our memories by blogging about them in the next day or two), and I have felt the presence and voice of the Spirit more times than I can count. I know in my heart that there is a God, regardless of whether I can prove it with empirical evidence. I don't need a sign to prove that there is a God. Even from just my personal experience, I have had signs enough.
