This is a wonderful sight, and it's one that's thankful to have the privilege of seeing. I hope that the Lord will bless me, that I'll be able to say something that will be of benefit to you and to myself. I know that the gospel is true, and I know that it's ahead of the true priesthood. The Lord spoke to me when I was a tiny child and told me, to stay close to my father because he had a wonderful way to be in the kingdom of God. And I forgot about it. Not that I was ever very far away from him in my spirit. But I think that little incident with my father left my mind for 50 years. And about two weeks before it was made known to me, I could bear my testimony better by the way I did my work than the way I could talk. And I know that sometimes I fall down in that, but I hope that the Lord will forgive me when I...
do it wrong, that he'll be able to hold me close and keep me in their right and true path. These things I pray for, and I pray for all of you, and I rejoice that you are associated with us in this work. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
