I wanted to add a about 3 pennies worth of thoughts...

First, the very fact that of ALL things that could have come to your mind, this part of your Patriarchal Blessing came to you. Why didn't you think about it before praying? or some other scripture?

Second, You don't really have a blessing until you know you have it. If someone gave me a new car and hung the keys on the porch and I never saw them and didn't know about it, then I didn't receive the car. So the gift was given, but not received and so remains unused and as if the gift was never given. So, If I asked you a month ago if you had your C&E, you would have said, "No" and you would have been right, not because God didn't give it, but because you didn't receive it.

Now, you have just been made aware that the gift was offered. Now you can choose to receive it or not.

Third, Just because a Patriarchal Blessing says a thing, doesn't make it so. Just because the prophet lays his hands on your head and pronounces it, doesn't make it so. It is the witness of the spirit that makes it so. If the spirit told you that it was true when you received it, then it is so. If the spirit told you it was true when you prayed and were reminded of your Patriarchal Blessing, then it is true. If you pray now and the spirit gives its witness that it is true, then it is true. This is called "the Holy Spirit of Promise". It seals to you all blessings.

All you need to do is get a testimony by personal witness from the spirit that you have received the blessing and you have it. That witness will come as a personal revelation and may focused on that specific part of your Patriarchal Blessing, a scripture or scriptures, a voice speaking personal scripture to you or some other way which you recognize as being the promise of exaltation.

BUT, ONLY YOU can know when you have received it. Others can know when it has been offered, but ONLY you can know when you recognize and accept the offering. If you have any doubts or questions, go to God, (Your Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother), until they are resolved and they will answer you in a way you will recognize and receive.

Welcome to the club, I look forward to hearing your additional thoughts to all our thoughts and comments and about the rest of this story.
