in_o one_o may_v grow_v out_o of_o humour_n and_o recall_n it_o by_o another_o the_o best_a and_o wise_a of_o man_n be_v very_o waver_v and_o irresolute_a so_o that_o no_o one_o know_v what_o a_o day_n may_v bring_v forth_o and_o suppose_v there_o shall_v be_v no_o danger_n in_o the_o delay_n but_o that_o the_o former_a shall_v stand_v unaltered_a yet_o a_o testament_n be_v of_o no_o strength_n at_o all_o 9.17_o whilst_o the_o testator_n live_v and_o therefore_o that_o his_o design_v charity_n ever_o take_v effect_n be_v not_o whole_o due_a to_o his_o will_n and_o intention_n but_o in_o some_o measure_n also_o to_o that_o stand_v unchangeable_a decree_n whereby_o it_o be_v appoint_v for_o man_n once_o to_o die_v if_o you_o can_v certify_v he_o that_o he_o have_v long_a to_o live_v and_o that_o his_o soul_n shall_v not_o yet_o be_v require_v of_o he_o he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o hold_v fast_o his_o possession_n his_o desire_n will_v increase_v with_o his_o heap_n till_o at_o length_n they_o become_v capacious_a and_o unsatiable_a as_o the_o grave_a and_o i_o make_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o same_o tenacious_a principle_n which_o hinder_v he_o from_o reach_v out_o his_o hand_n to_o do_v good_a as_o he_o have_v a_o opportunity_n will_v equal_o influence_n he_o a_o hundred_o year_n hence_o twice_o tell_v if_o we_o can_v suppose_v his_o day_n to_o be_v so_o prolong_v on_o the_o earth_n those_o than_o afford_v we_o the_o high_a demonstration_n of_o a_o noble_a a_o large_a and_o generous_a soul_n who_o settle_v their_o charity_n themselves_o thereby_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n before_o he_o cause_v darkness_n before_o their_o foot_n stumble_v upon_o the_o dark_a mountain_n and_o they_o themselves_o fall_v into_o the_o ruin_n of_o old-age_n 3._o my_o three_o consideration_n be_v this_o that_o they_o who_o dispose_v of_o what_o they_o design_v for_o charitable_a uses_n while_o they_o live_v do_v thereby_o show_v that_o they_o firm_o trust_v in_o and_o more_o entire_o rely_v on_o the_o good_a providence_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n say_v the_o psalmist_n have_v prepare_v his_o throne_n in_o the_o heaven_n 19_o and_o his_o kingdom_n rule_v over_o all_o his_o providence_n extend_v to_o all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n but_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v particular_o concern_v for_o the_o child_n of_o men._n we_o ought_v therefore_o to_o lay_v aside_o all_o anxious_a perplex_v thought_n for_o to_o morrow_n and_o to_o cast_v all_o our_o care_n upon_o he_o who_o have_v promise_v not_o to_o leave_v we_o 13.5_o nor_o forsake_v we_o and_o the_o best_a way_n to_o evidence_n this_o our_o reliance_n upon_o the_o good_a providence_n of_o god_n be_v to_o make_v he_o a_o plentiful_a return_n of_o his_o own_o bounty_n and_o to_o do_v good_a proportionable_o to_o our_o ability_n with_o what_o we_o at_o present_a enjoy_v we_o ought_v to_o remember_v that_o a_o considerable_a part_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n divine_a sermon_n upon_o the_o mount_n be_v design_v to_o remove_v our_o doubt_n concern_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v trouble_v or_o discompose_v as_o the_o heathen_n be_v with_o fearful_a apprehension_n of_o future_a want_n we_o may_v learn_v from_o thence_o that_o our_o life_n be_v more_o than_o meat_n and_o our_o body_n than_o raiment_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v sure_o conclude_v that_o god_n who_o be_v so_o able_a and_o so_o kind_a as_o to_o give_v the_o one_o can_v be_v unable_a neither_o will_v he_o be_v backward_o to_o give_v the_o other_o we_o can_v but_o observe_v that_o the_o fowl_n of_o the_o air_n be_v plentiful_o feed_v though_o they_o contribute_v nothing_o to_o their_o own_o support_n and_o that_o the_o lily_n of_o the_o field_n which_o do_v neither_o toil_n nor_o spin_v be_v yet_o so_o rich_o array_v that_o they_o exceed_v solomon_n in_o all_o his_o glory_n and_o have_v such_o demonstrative_a argument_n of_o god_n providence_n over_o being_n of_o a_o inferior_a class_n we_o may_v be_v very_o confident_a that_o his_o watchful_a eye_n be_v over_o man_n who_o be_v make_v in_o his_o own_o image_n be_v the_o perfection_n and_o masterpiece_n of_o this_o low_a world_n the_o case_n of_o the_o gentile_n be_v far_o otherwise_o the_o idol_n they_o adore_v be_v wood_n and_o stone_n the_o work_n of_o man_n hand_n which_o they_o see_v stand_v in_o need_n of_o the_o help_n and_o protection_n of_o their_o votary_n who_o want_n they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o and_o so_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v think_v able_a to_o supply_v they_o upon_o this_o account_n it_o be_v no_o great_a wonder_n that_o they_o be_v so_o very_o solicitous_a for_o themselves_o but_o if_o we_o who_o worship_n the_o true_a live_a god_n who_o understand_v all_o our_o necessity_n before_o we_o ask_v and_o have_v promise_v in_o his_o due_a time_n to_o relieve_v they_o if_o we_o shall_v continue_v to_o disquiet_v ourselves_o about_o distant_a event_n and_o future_a contingency_n it_o may_v just_o be_v think_v that_o we_o have_v not_o learned_a christ_n so_o perfect_o as_o we_o shall_v and_o that_o this_o distrust_n of_o we_o proceed_v from_o a_o very_a great_a weakness_n if_o not_o from_o a_o total_a want_n of_o faith_n and_o as_o there_o be_v some_o reason_n to_o suspect_v that_o the_o same_o evil_n distrustful_a heart_n be_v in_o those_o who_o defer_v their_o charity_n till_o they_o die_v so_o the_o best_a method_n of_o remove_v all_o just_a ground_n of_o such_o a_o suspicion_n be_v to_o be_v rich_a in_o good_a work_n while_o they_o live_v for_o he_o that_o disperse_v abroad_o and_o be_v glad_a to_o distribute_v to_o the_o necessity_n of_o other_o gives_z all_o the_o world_n a_o satisfactory_a and_o convince_a proof_n that_o he_o firm_o believe_v in_o god_n and_o entire_o depend_v upon_o his_o never-failing_a providence_n for_o the_o supply_n of_o his_o own_o 4._o i_o desire_v it_o may_v be_v consider_v by_o man_n of_o ability_n that_o the_o dispose_n of_o their_o charity_n while_o they_o live_v may_v conduce_v very_o much_o to_o the_o raise_n of_o their_o affection_n from_o thing_n below_o and_o place_v they_o on_o thing_n above_o the_o
