be_v he_o building_n and_o prepare_v he_o to_o be_v a_o more_o excellent_a structure_n the_o gardener_n dig_v up_o his_o garden_n pull_v up_o his_o fence_n take_v up_o his_o plant_n and_o to_o the_o

god_n be_v present_a even_o in_o desertion_n and_o though_o he_o seem_v to_o annihilate_v or_o to_o reduce_v his_o new_a creation_n into_o a_o confuse_a chaos_n yet_o it_o be_v to_o repair_v its_o

of_o a_o house_n we_o see_v how_o they_o pull_v down_o part_n after_o part_n as_o if_o they_o intend_v to_o demolish_v it_o but_o the_o end_n be_v to_o make_v it_o better_o it_o may_v be_v some_o

away_o our_o prop_n it_o be_v not_o that_o we_o may_v fall_v but_o that_o he_o may_v settle_v we_o in_o great_a strength_n he_o batter_v down_o the_o life_n of_o sense_n to_o put_v we_o upon_o a_o life_n of_o faith_n and_o when_o he_o darken_v our_o light_n that_o we_o can_v see_v it_o be_v but_o to_o bring_v in_o full_a light_n as_o when_o the_o star_n shine_v not_o the_o sun_n appear_v repair_v our_o loss_n of_o a_o obscure_a light_n with_o her_o clear_a bright_a shine_a beam_n so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o though_o god_n do_v forsake_v his_o people_n yet_o not_o total_o not_o for_o ever_o not_o cease_v the_o affection_n of_o love_n but_o the_o act_n and_o not_o those_o which_o concern_v our_o be_v but_o such_o as_o concern_v our_o well_o be_v as_o abundant_a quickning_n and_o

they_o befall_v the_o godly_a desertion_n as_o they_o befall_v the_o godly_a be_v of_o two_o sort_n withdraw_v of_o 1_o influence_n of_o grace_n 2_o of_o comfort_n 1_o inward_a 2_o outward_a for_o all_o the_o complaint_n which_o the_o saint_n do_v make_v of_o god_n hide_v and_o withdraw_v himself_o arise_v from_o one_o of_o these_o three_o ground_n or_o all_o 1._o that_o god_n do_v not_o carry_v on_o their_o spiritual_a life_n as_o he_o be_v wont_a 2._o that_o he_o give_v not_o that_o peace_n joy_n comfort_n assurance_n as_o he_o be_v wont_a without_o a_o man_n may_v want_v god_n gracious_a presence_n in_o outward_a thing_n yet_o enjoy_v his_o internal_a presence_n in_o the_o soul_n yea_o often_o there_o be_v most_o of_o god_n within_o when_o least_o without_o 3._o that_o he_o bring_v they_o into_o outward_a strait_n and_o do_v not_o deliver_v they_o before_o i_o come_v to_o speak_v direct_o and_o particular_o of_o these_o i_o will_v propose_v four_o brief_a observation_n about_o they_o 1._o that_o a_o man_n may_v miss_v much_o of_o god_n external_a presence_n in_o the_o sweet_a and_o comfortable_a way_n of_o his_o providence_n provide_v protect_a and_o order_v all_o occurrent_n to_o contentment_n yet_o may_v enjoy_v inward_a communion_n with_o he_o his_o soul_n may_v be_v most_o abundant_o animate_v and_o quicken_v with_o the_o spirit_n when_o he_o have_v most_o discouragement_n without_o yea_o god_n be_v wont_a when_o he_o give_v least_o in_o the_o world_n 5._o 2_o cor._n 1.4_o 5._o to_o give_v most_o of_o himself_o and_o his_o people_n seldom_o have_v much_o of_o the_o fatness_n below_o and_o of_o the_o spring_v above_o at_o once_o as_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o star_n appear_v not_o together_o but_o when_o he_o shut_v up_o all_o door_n of_o hope_n and_o help_v in_o the_o world_n than_o he_o set_v open_v the_o door_n of_o heaven_n so_o saint_n stephen_n when_o he_o see_v nothing_o but_o death_n in_o the_o world_n then_o see_v heaven_n open_v and_o christ_n sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n act_v 7._o such_o mercy_n find_v jacob_n when_o he_o be_v a_o poor_a pilgrim_n in_o a_o strange_a land_n than_o he_o see_v that_o heavenly_a ladder_n and_o the_o angel_n ascend_v and_o descend_v as_o a_o pledge_n of_o god_n care_n and_o their_o readiness_n for_o his_o good_a gen._n 28.12_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o spirit_n both_o of_o grace_n and_o peace_n be_v usual_o pour_v forth_o in_o a_o day_n of_o sorrow_n as_o when_o the_o dough_n which_o the_o israelite_n bring_v from_o egypt_n be_v spend_v god_n give_v they_o bread_n from_o heaven_n and_o there_o be_v 2._o cause_n of_o it_o 1._o god_n tender_a love_n which_o be_v such_o that_o he_o will_v not_o add_v affliction_n to_o his_o people_n sorrow_n sorrow_n because_o god_n love_n be_v such_o that_o he_o will_v not_o add_v sorrow_n to_o sorrow_n when_o therefore_o he_o be_v please_v in_o his_o wisdom_n to_o put_v a_o cup_n of_o affliction_n into_o their_o hand_n he_o be_v wont_a to_o give_v they_o also_o the_o cup_n of_o consolation_n when_o he_o cast_v they_o into_o outward_a strait_n he_o do_v recompense_v it_o with_o inward_a inlargement_n the_o church_n never_o have_v such_o full_a prediction_n of_o christ_n and_o precious_a promise_n of_o great_a mercy_n as_o when_o the_o most_o dreadful_a evil_n hang_v over_o her_o head_n as_o appear_v in_o the_o prophecy_n of_o all_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o faithful_a usual_o find_v their_o worst_a day_n their_o best_a day_n and_o when_o they_o meet_v with_o trouble_n they_o find_v most_o peace_n this_o the_o apostle_n witness_v as_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n abound_v in_o we_o so_o our_o consolation_n also_o abound_v by_o christ_n 2_o cor._n 1.4_o and_o though_o our_o outward_a man_n perish_v

and_o enlarge_v in_o affliction_n heavenly_a communion_n with_o god_n be_v sweet_a in_o a_o evil_a day_n and_o the_o soul_n belong_v after_o god_n that_o in_o he_o it_o may_v find_v all_o supply_v

so_o david_n when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n pant_v and_o breathe_v after_o god_n he_o pray_v he_o cry_v his_o thought_n be_v with_o god_n all_o the_o day_n yea_o in_o the_o night_n he_o

presence_n one_o may_v want_v inward_a comfort_n yet_o not_o be_v desert_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o influence_n of_o grace_n the_o tenure_n of_o grace_n and_o peace_n be_v not_o the_o same_o a_o
