blessed Truth of our God you that have kept this our Meeting for many Years and some of you from the first Day the Lord gathered us together and made us a Meeting I do believe that you with me can truly say That we have felt the drawings of the Father's Love from time to time to this our Meeting and his Blessing is amongst us Insomuch as we dared not to suffer any of our own Occasions to hinder us from this our Service to which the Lord hath called us but many times have pressed through the croud of much Business and many things that would have hindred but we dared not to give way unto it but in faithfulness answer the Lord's Requirings The Lord hath been with us of a truth from time to time his Living Powerful Presence has been truly witnessed amongst us to the refreshing of our immortal Souls which is a true Confirmation to us that the Lord owns us in this our Service And I can truly say I had true Breathings to the Lord in the behalf of our younger Women as they come to be settled in the World amongst us that they may be affected with the Work and Service of our Meeting as truly as we have been and are to this day and that they may be Heirs of the Grace of God with us And this I can truly say I have felt the zeal of the Lord to arise in my Heart sometimes in a Meeting and sometimes upon my Bed against this wicked Spirit that hath sought to lay waste and bring to nought our blessed Meeting and heavenly Society and Order which hath been set up amongst us and a true sence hath been upon me of our dear Friends up and down the Nation of their great Tryal and Exercise that hath been upon them because of this wicked dividing Spirit and especially in my Native Country viz. Wiltshire And this was the first moving cause in the Power of God in my Heart to cast in my Mite as my Testimony to that everlasting Universal blessed Power which the Lord hath made me a living Witness of according to my measure And this I can say the more Opposition we have had against our Womens Meeting the more we have increased in the Power of the Lord and he hath blessed our Endeavours and Services and therefore Friends be not discouraged but go on in the Work and Service of the Lord in his Power to his Glory who hath honoured his Daughters of Abraham and Sion in his heavenly Work and therefore we cannot but serve the Lord in our Generation and be Valiant for his Truth upon Earth and our desires are that all our fellow Sisters in the Lords Truth may do the same every where throughout the whole Earth where the Lord hath gathered them so that all may live to the Praise and Glory of God Amen And though we are Absent in the Body yet Present in Spirit with all the Faithful with the Spirit joying and beholding your spiritual Order in the Spirit and steadfastness of your Faith in Christ Jesus the second Adam the Lord from Heaven in whom our Peace and Ress is Mary Elson THE END BOOKS Printed and Sold by Andrew Sowle at the Crooked Billet in Holloway-Lane in Shoreditch NO Cross No Crown Or a Discourse shewing the Nature and Discipline of the holy Cross of Christ An Answer to a foolish Libel called The Quakers Opinions England's present Interest discovered with honour to the Prince and safety to the People An Epistle to the Churches of Jesus throughout the World.
