if_o this_o be_v true_a that_o the_o lord_n be_v more_o move_v by_o my_o fail_n to_o pity_v i_o than_o to_o cast_v i_o off_o than_o i_o have_v no_o reason_n for_o to_o be_v discourage_v and_o thus_o

now_o swearer_n now_o adulterer_n now_o drunkard_n now_o thou_o come_v to_o duty_n now_o will_v i_o remember_v thy_o iniquity_n be_v it_o not_o a_o sad_a thing_n that_o the_o lord_n shall_v remember_v a_o man_n sin_n at_o the_o time_n when_o he_o come_v to_o prayer_n yet_o thus_o the_o lord_n deal_v with_o the_o wicked_a but_o as_o for_o the_o godly_a and_o gracious_a man_n it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o he_o when_o he_o come_v to_o prayer_n though_o he_o have_v many_o fail_n in_o duty_n yet_o the_o lord_n remember_v his_o mercy_n than_o the_o lord_n remember_v his_o love_a kindness_n than_o

suppose_v that_o i_o have_v do_v foolish_o and_o have_v sin_v in_o be_v discourage_v upon_o all_o occasion_n suppose_v i_o have_v many_o fail_n in_o duty_n and_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o answer_v my_o

grace_n of_o duty_n or_o the_o present_a answer_n of_o it_o so_o much_o as_o you_o lay_v the_o stress_n and_o weight_n of_o your_o comfort_n upon_o duty_n so_o much_o will_v you_o be_v discourage_v in_o case_n you_o do_v either_o want_v duty_n or_o a_o answer_n to_o it_o when_o paul_n be_v tempt_v and_o buffet_v he_o pray_v thrice_o for_o this_o say_v he_o i_o beseech_v the_o lord_n thrice_o thâ—t_n be_v often_o and_o the_o lord_n give_v he_o no_o other_o answer_n than_o this_o 9_o 2_o cor._n 12.8_o 9_o paul_n my_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a for_o thou_o for_o my_o strength_n shall_v be_v make_v perfect_a in_o thy_o weakness_n whereupon_o paul_n say_v now_o therefore_o will_v i_o glory_n in_o my_o infirmity_n that_o the_o pour_v of_o the_o lord_n may_v rest_v upon_o i_o have_v thou_o therefore_o be_v at_o prayer_n and_o have_v thou_o pray_v thrice_o or_o often_o and_o have_v thou_o no_o answer_n but_o this_o my_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a for_o thou_o know_v that_o thou_o have_v

difficulty_n your_o duty_n do_v press_v through_o to_o god_n the_o more_o acceptable_a they_o be_v to_o he_o the_o less_o there_o be_v to_o sweeten_v your_o duty_n to_o you_o the_o more_o sweet_a be_v your_o duty_n to_o god_n it_o be_v in_o our_o perform_n of_o duty_n as_o in_o the_o offering_n of_o the_o jewish_a sacrifice_n in_o the_o offering_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n the_o sacrifice_n and_o the_o obedience_n in_o offer_v the_o sacrifice_n and_o the_o more_o difficult_a it_o be_v for_o any_o poor_a jew_n by_o reason_n of_o poverty_n or_o the_o like_a to_o offer_v this_o sacrifice_n the_o more_o and_o great_a be_v his_o obedience_n in_o offer_v it_o the_o more_o difficulty_n in_o offering_n the_o great_a the_o obedience_n offer_v so_o also_o it_o be_v in_o our_o gospel_n sacrifice_n and_o in_o all_o our_o duty_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o they_o there_o be_v the_o sacrifice_n the_o duty_n and_o there_o be_v the_o obedience_n in_o bring_v the_o duty_n and_o the_o more_o difficulty_n in_o perform_v the_o duty_n the_o great_a be_v the_o obedience_n to_o god_n in_o the_o perform_n of_o it_o now_o be_v be_v not_o a_o hard_a thing_n and_o very_o difficult_a for_o a_o man_n to_o pray_v and_o continue_v pray_v when_o his_o heart_n be_v harden_v and_o his_o spirit_n straighten_v especial_o if_o he_o be_v sensible_a thereof_o then_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o despond_v and_o say_v i_o can_v pray_v no_o more_o and_o be_v it_o not_o a_o very_a hard_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n to_o pray_v and_o persevere_v in_o prayer_n when_o he_o think_v that_o god_n do_v not_o regard_v his_o prayer_n then_o he_o be_v apt_a to_o say_v why_o shall_v i_o pray_v any_o long_o for_o god_n regard_v i_o not_o yet_o now_o if_o you_o do_v pray_v and_o perform_v your_o duty_n your_o obedience_n be_v the_o more_o obediential_a &_o the_o more_o acceptable_a and_o if_o you_o will_v but_o think_v of_o this_o rule_n difficulty_n do_v commend_v duty_n and_o the_o less_o you_o have_v to_o sweeten_v your_o action_n the_o more_o sweet_a it_o be_v to_o god_n i_o say_v if_o you_o will_v but_o remember_v this_o it_o will_v both_o encourage_v you_o to_o duty_n and_o keep_v you_o from_o discouragement_n in_o it_o and_o last_o we_o must_v all_o learn_v to_o leave_v the_o event_n and_o success_n of_o our_o spiritual_a thing_n unto_o god_n himself_o so_o shall_v we_o never_o be_v discourage_v in_o any_o duty_n for_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v sure_a and_o god_n have_v speak_v it_o psal_n 55._o cast_v thy_o gift_n upon_o the_o lord_n bomb._n heb._n 〈◊〉_d
