The Lord is pleased with the integrity of thine heart and with thy life's labors. Thy name shall be known in the earth and handed down from generation to generation in honor by thy descendants. Thou art of Ephraim and entitled to all the blessings promised to his lineage. Thy life shall be spared long in the earth and thy usefulness extended, and better days - more joyous and happy await thee. Thy board shall be spread with plenty and every want supplied. The riches of the earth are abundantly thine and thy last days shall be thy best days. Thy children will bless thee and delight to do thee honor in thy declining years. The desires of thy heart shall be granted and peace and comfort be thy lot. Thou shalt be fully satisfied with thy life's labors and have joy in the Redeemer's Kingdom all of which I seal upon you in the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
