love_n unto_o his_o people_n and_o sure_o god_n intend_v yet_o further_o love_n unto_o we_o and_o then_o for_o ourselves_o in_o particular_a it_o be_v very_o good_a for_o child_n we_o to_o look_v back_o unto_o his_o ancient_a love_n that_o be_v now_o god_n have_v love_v some_o of_o you_o from_o your_o childhood_n how_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n do_v work_v towards_o you_o then_o some_o of_o you_o i_o suppose_v in_o this_o place_n may_v say_v that_o god_n love_v you_o when_o you_o be_v child_n when_o i_o be_v a_o child_n i_o have_v such_o and_o such_o expression_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o i_o it_o be_v love_n that_o i_o be_v bear_v of_o christian_a parent_n and_o that_o i_o be_v bring_v up_o in_o christian_a education_n that_o i_o be_v deliver_v from_o such_o and_o such_o danger_n yea_o it_o may_v be_v god_n begin_v to_o reveal_v himself_o to_o i_o betimes_o and_o if_o you_o will_v call_v to_o mind_v all_o the_o love_a passage_n of_o god_n providence_n since_o you_o be_v child_n you_o may_v have_v matter_n of_o meditation_n sufficient_a there_o be_v many_o of_o you_o that_o complain_v you_o can_v find_v matter_n for_o meditation_n i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o rule_n to_o help_v you_o in_o meditation_n at_o any_o time_n it_o be_v this_o when_o you_o meditation_n can_v meditate_v of_o other_o thing_n but_o you_o be_v present_o be_v wilder_v and_o know_v not_o whither_o to_o go_v then_o turn_v yourselves_o to_o this_o meditation_n to_o think_v of_o all_o the_o gracious_a passage_n of_o god_n providence_n towards_o you_o ever_o since_o you_o be_v child_n and_o this_o the_o weak_a may_v be_v able_a to_o go_v along_o in_o and_o that_o be_v the_o three_o note_n of_o observation_n four_o all_o god_n old_a mercy_n remain_v engagement_n unto_o duty_n 4._o and_o aggravation_n to_o our_o sin_n i_o love_v he_o when_o he_o be_v a_o child_n it_o be_v bring_v to_o that_o end_n to_o aggravate_v their_o sin_n and_o further_o to_o engage_v they_o unto_o duty_n remember_v that_o the_o love_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n unto_o you_o when_o you_o be_v child_n be_v engagement_n to_o duty_n when_o you_o be_v old_a and_o they_o be_v aggravation_n of_o your_o sin_n the_o sin_n of_o those_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o be_v against_o old_a mercy_n they_o be_v the_o great_a sin_n oh_o that_o you_o shall_v sin_v against_o that_o love_n of_o god_n unto_o you_o when_o you_o be_v child_n god_n begin_v with_o you_o then_o and_o have_v continue_v his_o love_n and_o mercy_n to_o you_o ever_o since_o then_o oh_o make_v this_o a_o aggravation_n of_o your_o sin_n in_o the_o day_n of_o your_o humiliation_n charge_v it_o upon_o your_o own_o soul_n these_o and_o these_o sin_n have_v i_o commit_v though_o god_n love_v i_o though_o god_n mercy_n and_o goodness_n be_v towards_o i_o when_o i_o be_v a_o child_n and_o have_v go_v along_o to_o i_o yet_o i_o have_v walk_v unworthy_a of_o all_o that_o love_n and_o mercy_n know_v that_o if_o you_o do_v forget_v the_o old_a love_n of_o god_n yet_o the_o lord_n remember_v it_o he_o remember_v his_o old_a mercy_n and_o he_o remember_v your_o old_a sin_n but_o then_o fifthly_o let_v not_o our_o heart_n sink_v in_o despair_a thought_n though_o we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o do_v but_o little_a for_o god_n and_o though_o 5._o we_o be_v unworthy_a of_o love_n though_o there_o be_v much_o vanity_n and_o folly_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o in_o our_o life_n yea_o though_o there_o have_v be_v much_o stubbornness_n yet_o still_o let_v not_o our_o heart_n sink_v in_o despair_a thought_n i_o love_v they_o when_o they_o be_v a_o child_n they_o can_v do_v little_a for_o i_o and_o they_o know_v little_a of_o i_o and_o they_o be_v vain_a and_o foolish_a and_o stubborn_a and_o yet_o i_o love_v they_o certain_o the_o way_n of_o god_n towards_o age_n israel_n be_v as_o a_o type_n of_o his_o way_n towards_o his_o saint_n as_o the_o affliction_n of_o israel_n be_v typical_a to_o the_o church_n and_o we_o gather_v a_o argument_n to_o be_v patient_a in_o affliction_n when_o we_o read_v how_o god_n deal_v with_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n in_o the_o wilderness_n so_o we_o may_v gather_v a_o argument_n to_o help_v our_o faith_n when_o as_o we_o read_v how_o god_n deal_v with_o they_o though_o they_o be_v unworthy_a and_o be_v poor_a and_o weak_a yet_o god_n love_v they_o therefore_o you_o poor_a people_n that_o find_v yourselves_o weak_a in_o understanding_n alas_o you_o know_v little_a and_o can_v remember_v little_a of_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o alas_o you_o can_v do_v little_a for_o god_n ●ea_o i_o find_v perhaps_o say_v one_o much_o frowardness_n and_o stubborness_n in_o my_o heart_n against_o god_n but_o do_v you_o bewail_v it_o if_o so_o let_v not_o your_o heart_n be_v discourage_v do_v not_o think_v that_o these_o be_v thing_n that_o will_v hinder_v the_o love_n of_o lovely_a god_n god_n heart_n may_v be_v towards_o you_o notwithstanding_o this_o when_o god_n come_v to_o love_v he_o do_v not_o find_v the_o object_n to_o be_v lovely_a before_o he_o love_v but_o his_o love_n make_v the_o object_n to_o be_v lovely_a therefore_o god_n can_v love_v though_o thou_o know_v little_a and_o can_v do_v but_o little_a but_o you_o will_v say_v he_o can_v love_v i_o but_o will_v he_o love_v if_o object_n i_o do_v but_o know_v that_o this_o will_v satisfy_v my_o heart_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v first_o how_o ever_o when_o you_o hear_v that_o god_n do_v love_n israel_n answ_n when_o he_o be_v such_o a_o child_n that_o none_o eye_n pity_v he_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o help_v you_o against_o any_o conclude_a thought_n against_o god_n love_n for_o god_n do_v love_v his_o people_n when_o they_o be_v as_o unworthy_a as_o you_o be_v and_o then_o second_o but_o will_v you_o know_v whether_o god_n will_v love_v you_o the_o ready_a way_n for_o you_o to_o know_v whether_o god_n will_v love_v you_o yea_o or_o no_o it_o be_v first_o to_o raise_v up_o your_o faith_n if_o you_o be_v able_a upon_o such_o ground_n as_o these_o be_v upon_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o love_n to_o his_o people_n when_o they_o be_v unworthy_a and_o then_o second_o in_o quietness_n and_o meekness_n of_o spirit_n to_o lay_v thyself_o before_o the_o lord_n as_o a_o object_n of_o his_o pity_n if_o thou_o do_v not_o think_v thyself_o worthy_a to_o be_v a_o object_n of_o no_o love_n yet_o lay_v thy_o heart_n before_o god_n as_o a_o object_n of_o pity_n and_o there_o resolve_v to_o wait_v till_o the_o time_n of_o love_n shall_v come_v till_o god_n shall_v make_v know_v that_o his_o heart_n be_v towards_o thou_o for_o good_a it_o be_v not_o the_o way_n for_o thou_o to_o be_v froward_a and_o vex_v because_o of_o thy_o unworthiness_n meanness_n poverty_n and_o baseness_n and_o so_o to_o determine_v that_o he_o will_v not_o love_v thou_o therefore_o but_o i_o say_v the_o way_n for_o thou_o to_o have_v the_o sense_n of_o god_n love_n be_v this_o when_o thou_o see_v there_o be_v no_o worthiness_n in_o thou_o why_o he_o shall_v love_v thou_o yet_o there_o be_v enough_o in_o thou_o to_o make_v thyself_o a_o object_n of_o his_o pity_n and_o sixth_o do_v the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o his_o people_n begin_v 6._o so_o soon_o i_o love_v israel_n when_o he_o be_v a_o child_n oh_o let_v not_o thy_o love_n then_o to_o he_o be_v defer_v too_o long_o god_n love_n begin_v betimes_o to_o his_o people_n let_v not_o his_o people_n love_v be_v defer_v too_o long_o god_n be_v before_o hand_n with_o you_o in_o love_n and_o when_o ever_o we_o begin_v to_o love_v he_o it_o be_v upon_o this_o ground_n because_o he_o love_v we_o first_o you_o who_o be_v young_a youth_n do_v you_o love_v youth_n god_n betimes_o for_o if_o you_o be_v such_o as_o ever_o shall_v be_v save_v god_n do_v not_o only_o love_v you_o when_o you_o be_v a_o child_n but_o he_o love_v you_o before_o you_o be_v bear_v before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n be_v lay_v oh_o it_o be_v pity_n that_o the_o first_o spring_v of_o your_o love_n shall_v not_o be_v bestow_v upon_o god_n certain_o old_a love_n be_v the_o best_a love_n as_o old_a love_n in_o god_n be_v sweet_a so_o old_a love_n in_o the_o saint_n it_o be_v a_o sweet_a thing_n to_o think_v that_o god_n love_v i_o from_o a_o child_n but_o then_o if_o i_o can_v say_v this_o too_o i_o
