true children LXI MEDITATION Of our Lords Praier or Pater noster Matth. 6.9 Luke 11.2 1. CONSIDER vpon these words of our Lords praier Hallowed be thy name what we demaund in them saying We demaund 1. That we be sanctified to the end that we may inuoke him holily and by vertue therof obteine of him whatsoeuer we need 2. That we may alwaies praise our God and in all things and euery where seeke his greater glory 3. That we alwaies speak of almighty God with great reuerence respect 4. That all men may praise and honour his holy name with hart and mouth Thy kingdome come we demaund 1. That the holy faith and Ghospell of Christ be preached throughout the whole world and receaued of all nations that all may knowe their true King God and Creatour 2. That our Lord affoarding vs his holy grace do so possesse our soules that neither temptation of the diuell nor afflictiō of the world of the flesh or any other sinne may finde place in our soules 3. That in the end it will please him to receaue vs into his glory which is his true kingdome Thy will be done that is be accomplished perfectly 1. In my self as well in my body as in my soule so that I neither will nor desire any thing but that which my Lord God willeth and desireth of me 2. In all my neighbours and all men that liue in the world to the end they may willingly fulfil all that which God hath commanded them to do Giue vs this day our daily bread to wit 1. Thy holy word which is the foode of our soules whether we heare it in Sermons Exhortations Reading or Praier 2. Thy holy body which is the true bread of life 3 The nuriture necessarie for our bodyes without superfluitie or daintinesse And forgiue vs our debts as we a●so forgiue our debtours that is 1. The sinnes we haue committed against thy diuine maiestie whether they be Mortall to the paines of which we ar yet obliged or Veniall into which we dailie fall And leade vs not into temptation which is to say 2. Permit or suffer not o Lord that we fall into those sinnes and offenses vnto which we are daily sollicited and prouoked by the world the flesh and the diuell who doth continually watch to ruine and destroy vs. But deliuer vs from euill that is 3. From all temporall euill that in this world may befall and oppresse vs as plague warre famine sicknes and other calamities which through our sinnes we haue oftentimes deserued Free from all dangers O our good Father Lord and Sauiour So be it LXII MEDITATION Of the life of poore Lazarus and the wicked Richman Luke 16.19 1. CONSIDER how our Sauiour recounting this history vouchsafed not to name this Richman and yet named the poore Lazarus therby to shew vs that it is not riches that makes men great before God but vertue and to teach vs how we ought to cōceale keep close the names of those whose imperfectiōs we are forced to discouer 2. How the Ghospell neuer maketh mention that our Sauiour spake of riches but condemning and despising them or threatning and cursing rich men thereby to teach vs how hard a thing it is to be saued amongst riches and contrariewise how blessed are the poore 3. Behold on the one side this Richman well apparelled stately lodged and delicately fed and on the other side poore Lazarus all naked lying on the ground desyring the crums of bred that fell frō the Rich-mans table and receauing more consolation of dogs then of men Let vs learne That the prosperities and riches of this world doe so blind men that they make them become more hard and vnmercifull then brute beasts LXIII MEDITATION Of Lazarus and the rich Gluttons end Luke 16.22 1. CONSIDER how poore Lazarus died and was carried by the Angels into Abrahams bosome being a place of repose but that the Rich man dying was buried in hell 2. How the rich Glutton was not only tormented by the diuels who afflicted him but also by the remembrance of his sinnes commit●ed and of the daunger wherein he saw his brethren were who yet liued 3. How Abraham answered him that there was now no more time to do good refusing to giue him a little drop of water which he demaunded to asswage his torments Let vs learne 1. That the euils vexations and anguishes which we suffer in this world shall soone haue an end but that the paines of hell shall endure for euer and euer 2. How great and excessiue are the torments of the damned seing they haue not any consolation at all 3. To do good whilest we can for the time will come in which we will wish we had done it but then we shall haue no more meanes LXIIII. MEDITATION Of the young man that damaunded of our Lord what he might do to be saued Matth. 18.16 Mark 10.17 Luk. 18.18 1. CONSIDER with what deuotion this young man was moued to goe and present himself so humbly before our Sauiour and to aske him the meanes how he might ●e saued 2. How although our Lord seemed not to take in good port to be called Good of him that did not esteeme him for such yet did he answere to his question and teach him the things most necessary for his saluation to wit the Commaundements of God 3. How hauing vnderstood of this young man that he had alwaies carefully obserued and kept them our Lord loued him so much the more and said that it was sufficient in●ugh to be saued but that if he would be great and excellent in heauen he should leaue all that he had and follow Euangelicall perfection Let vs learne 1. To seeke incessantly that which may further vs to our saluation 2. To exercise our selues in works of charity towards our neighbour● by meanes of which we shall be more and more vnited with God 3. To condemne the riches and commodities of this world seing that they hinder vs to go forwards and grow in perfection LXV MEDITATION Of the reward our Sauiour promised vnto his Apostles Matth. 18.27 Mark 10.28 Luke 18.28 1. CONSIDER how the Apostles hauing noted the suddaine chāge which was wrought in this young man as soone as our Lord spake vnto him of leauing his riches and wealth and how he departed discontented were much astonished especially when they heard our Lord who said vnto them three times that it was a very hard thing for a Richman to be saued 2. How S. Peter as chiefe and head of the Apostolicall Colledg although he had not forsaken much substance for Christ his sake yet thinking that he had left somthing done that which our Sauiour requested at the hands of this young man did demaund very confidently what recompence they were to haue who had left all things to follow him 3. How our Sauiour promised vnto his Apostles rest and repose for their labour authority to iudge others for the reproaches and dishonours
