Sister Miriam I lay my hands upon your head in the name of Jesus of Nazareth and place and seal a blessing upon you that the desires of your heart may in part be realized. Behold you are blessed and shall be numbered with the blessed, and shall have a name and a place with the sanctified when your days of trial shall have ended, and in the days of your probation your calling and election shall be made sure and the past shall suffice and in future prosperity shall begin and spring up round about you, that your heart may be fully satisfied of the bounties received by the hand that hath sustained you in the days of your perils and of weakness. The same to begin not far hence both in your house in your habitations even unto the field and unto the flocks and in basket and in store and in the labor of your hands and in health which shall spring up around about you, and in the spirit and by the spirit and its communion in dream, in visions, in fellowship in communion with the saints, also, henceforth, if your faith fail not as it now is and you shall be blessed also in the benefits derived from the Priesthood; and from your inheritance and the blessings unto your Children, and the name that shall be had in honour until the latest generation shall be received and had in common with your husband being an heir of promise and to the same inheritance. And you shall be blessed with days and years to be multiplied upon your head if you will but ask and they shall be given you. Now I seal you unto eternal life to come forth in the celestial at the sounding of the first trump. Even so, Amen. |
William, I lay my hands upon your head in the name of Jesus of Nazareth to bless you. Although it is in the days of your youth great shall be your blessings in consequence of the exercise of faith in the morning of your days. Therefore, I say unto you, William, if you will continue faithful as you have begun, you shall be a bright and shining light unto this generation and unto your Father's house which light shall shine in your house through which salvation shall be administered unto your posterity and to future generations. The same will commemorate your name and make it honorable from generation to generation. This blessing is before you and again I say unto you, William, you are of the lineage of Ephraim, and shall be blessed with the Priesthood and a Dispensation of the Gospel, and in due time you shall administer and officiate in your office and calling wherein you are and shall receive light; cleave unto the Lord with all your might and where to lay your head, and finally bring you to Your inheritance, and to your place and station in the end of your days, as also to perpetuate Your name in honor, which will go down in lineage with the blessings of the Priesthood unto the latest generation. And if your faith fail not, your days shall be continued unto the coming of the Son of Man. These Blessings I seal upon your head, even so, Amen. |
