Brother Quincy Kimball I place my hands upon your head and seal upon you a Fathers and a Patriarchal Blessing. Thou art one of the noble sons of Zion and have been preserved to come forth in these the latter days for a great and wise purpose. The Lord has watched over thee and caused thy Guardian Angel to watch over thee from thy birth until the present time and has preserved thee from the hands of the Destroyer and from many accidents and from the evils of this world, and opened up thy way before thee, and assisted thee in bringing up thy brothers and sisters in honor before the Lord. Thou art of Joseph and a legal heir to the Priesthood of the living God. Thou shalt be enabled to accomplish a great work for thy family and thy kindred who have passed to the great beyond. It is thy privilege to live and behold the Redemption of Zion and the coming of the Savior with the mighty hosts of Heaven. Thou shalt have the privilege of sitting down with mighty men and Angels and walking and talking with them as one man walks and talks with another. Therefore be determined and resolute in keeping the covenants you have made with your Heavenly Father and observing all of the ordinances of the Gospel, and your days and years shall be increased unto you as long as you shall have a desire to live upon the Earth with wives and a great Kingdom, who shall rise up and call you blessed. All these gifts, blessings, and promises shall be yours through your faithfulness, for I seal them upon your head in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. |
Beloved Bro. Quince. Agreeable to the desires of thy heart and in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I have placed my hands upon thy head and seal upon thee a Patriarchal and a father's blessing. Behold I say unto thee fear not, for the Lord has heard thy petitions and has preserved thy life that thou mightest do a great and good work in thy day and generation. And to perpetuate the name of thy kindred, thy name shall go down with honor unto the latest generation and shall stand in thy lot and place in thy father's and mother's house. Behold they have made many sacrifices, and great promises have been made unto, that of their increase there should be no end. It is thy calling to labor as a savior unto many of thy kindred that have passed away. Holy Angels will yet administer in thy behalf. They have watched over thee in thine infantile moments and thy guardian angel will never forsake thee. Listen strictly to the still small voice and it shall be as a lamp unto thy feet and thou shalt have influence and power to do much good. Fear not. Reprove the wayward, and let the solemnities of this great and glorious work predominate in thy heart. These words are given thee to be a comfort unto thee with a promise through thy obedience that thou shalt attain unto a celestial crown. And let this day be unto thee never to be forgotten. Thou shalt have power to rebuke the enemy and thou shalt not be tempted beyond that which you can bear. Beloved Brother call upon the Lord in search every day of thy life, and thy children, and children's children shall rise up and call thee blessed, for thou art entitled to a fullness of the Holy Priesthood, the fullness thereof shall be conferred upon thee in due time. Thou art through the loins of Ephraim and I seal upon thy head the blessings of Abraham Isaac and Jacob. Thou shalt be remembered and blessed with every comfort and blessing which shall be for the honor and glory of God. The poor and needy shall honor thy name. I seal upon thee the spirit of prophecy and revelation and say unto thee be of good cheer for thy life shall be prolonged, and shall become mighty as a counselor in Israel. Behold, there is a mansion prepared for thee in the Eternal World for thy faithfulness, and thine associations there shall be with the Prophet Joseph Smith and his Brethren who have been instruments in carrying forth the Gospel unto the inhabitants of the Earth, and shall be prepared through humility to do a great work. I seal all these blessings upon thy head with all thy former blessings and with every blessing thy heart can desire in righteousness, by the authority of the Holy Priesthood and in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. |
