use of that, and as you travel gather more out
of the multitude which is in the storehouse of
the Lord, and from his servants, even of those prin-
ciples of truth which shall guide the children of
men. In as much as you are faithful you shall
fulfil your mission, be satisfied with it, bring
many into the kingdom, and again return to the
presidency of this Church and again rejoice with
them, and you shall see that it is one of the greatest
blessings that has ever come to you. You shall be
preserved when the Cholera and desease shall be
upon the right and upon the left, and even
while upon this mission you shall see sorrow
and affliction multiplied among the children
of men, and in the midst of all those things
you shall be preserved, and live to return in peace
to your family and friends. These and all other
blessings which you desire in righteousness shall
be given; we seal you up to eternal life, and
confer upon you every gift and blessing, and
we say that the promises shall all be fulfilled,
and we ask God our Heavenly Father to fulfil them
and to give you the desires of your heart, and to
sustain you at all times, and in every emergency
and time of need, and we will ascribe all the
honor to God and the Lamb for ever and ever. Amen
