This was based on comments I received in an email, so in truth they are not as much my own words, as an arrangement of words said to describe as I was seen and understood to be as a person 4051 She said "I Do" 29 June 2005 Of those words she said "I do" I like you very much and of this was true You always out-do yourself and of this she sent a reply When this was a happening to read over in tears of joy cry "Thank you" because you are so kind You have the gentlest heart warmest personality and sweetest touch in mind Through words that I have ever known For all the wonderful poems and correspondence you share unto me As to tomorrow in kinship in "your feelings devoted to thee" "And thou shalt continue in calling upon God in my name, and writing the things which shall be given thee by the Comforter, and expounding all scriptures unto the church. And it shall be given thee in the very moment what thou shalt speak and write, and they shall hear it, or I will send unto them a cursing instead of a blessing. For thou shalt devote all thy service in Zion; and in this thou shalt have strength. Be patient in afflictions, for thou shalt have many; but endure them, for, lo, I am with thee, even unto the end of thy days."
