before_o who_o we_o stand_v guilty_a &_o till_o he_o speak_v peace_n there_o be_v no_o solid_a calmness_n in_o our_o mind_n beside_o our_o heart_n natural_o be_v full_a of_o trouble_n and_o turmoil_n and_o therefore_o can_v have_v peace_n unless_o it_o be_v create_v in_o they_o now_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a work_n of_o god_n who_o say_v isai_n 57_o to_o this_o purpose_n i_o create_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n peace_n peace_n to_o he_o that_o be_v a_o far_o off_o last_o so_o long_o as_o sinful_a corruption_n be_v not_o heal_v in_o our_o soul_n their_o wound_n remain_v green_a which_o suffer_v we_o to_o have_v no_o rest_n now_o it_o be_v god_n alone_o who_o can_v heal●_n the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v he_o only_o who_o can_v give_v peace_n to_o it_o thus_o the_o work_n of_o this_o peace_n in_o we_o be_v the_o peculiar_a work_n of_o god_n if_o he_o stand_v by_o no_o man_n nor_o angel_n can_v give_v it_o hence_o david_n even_o after_o the_o tiding_n of_o peace_n bring_v unto_o he_o by_o nathan_n cry_v yet_o to_o god_n for_o peace_n and_o joy_n make_v i_o to_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o joy_n and_o gladness_n that_o the_o bone_n which_o thou_o have_v break_v may_v rejoice_v upon_o the_o other_o part_n as_o it_o be_v god_n alone_o who_o give_v this_o peace_n so_o for_o our_o comfort_n we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o he_o can_v easy_o give_v it_o easy_o and_o keep_v and_o preserve_v we_o in_o it_o it_o cost_v he_o no_o more_o but_o a_o word_n if_o be_v but_o speak_v peace_n we_o be_v sure_a to_o have_v it_o i_o will_v hear_v what_o the_o lord_n god_n will_v speak_v he_o will_v speak_v peace_n unto_o his_o people_n if_o he_o but_o speak_v the_o word_n it_o be_v do_v to_o this_o purpose_n we_o have_v a_o notable_a place_n isai_n 44._o there_o the_o lord_n be_v thus_o descrive_v the_o lord_n who_o say_v to_o jerusalem_n be_v thou_o inhabit_v and_o to_o the_o city_n of_o judah_n be_v you_o build_v that_o say_v unto_o the_o depth_n be_v dry_v up_o &_o that_o say_v to_o cyrus_n his_o servant_n thou_o be_v my_o shepherd_n and_o shall_v perform_v all_o my_o pleasure_n so_o the_o lord_n need_v no_o more_o but_o a_o word_n to_o

for_o our_o comfort_n that_o our_o god_n who_o we_o serve_v be_v able_a so_o easy_o to_o give_v we_o peace_n and_o calmness_n in_o all_o our_o trouble_n and_o distress_n you_o find_v this_o latlie_o by_o your_o own_o experience_n when_o you_o look_v for_o the_o help_n of_o man_n you_o be_v disappoint_v and_o feel_v that_o the_o arm_n of_o flesh_n be_v a_o vain_a thing_n to_o trust_v into_o but_o

on_o thou_o god._n etc._n etc._n the_o word_n in_o the_o original_n signify_v the_o mind_n or_o thought_n be_v stay_v and_o by_o some_o be_v refer_v to_o god_n by_o other_o to_o the_o godly_a learned_a calvin_n write_v upon_o this_o place_n refer_v the_o word_n to_o god_n thus_o the_o counsel_n and_o purpose_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o have_v decree_v to_o preserve_v the_o peace_n of_o his_o servant_n be_v unchangeable_a and_o therefore_o he_o will_v keep_v they_o in_o peace_n there_o can_v no_o alteration_n fall_v out_o in_o this_o world_n which_o may_v change_v his_o immutable_a mind_n so_o there_o be_v a_o secret_a opposition_n betwixt_o god_n thought_n and_o we_o my_o thought_n be_v not_o as_o you_o isai_n 55._o neither_o be_v my_o way_n as_o your_o way_n but_o as_o high_a as_o the_o heaven_n be_v above_o the_o earth_n so_o high_a be_v my_o thought_n above_o your_o thought_n and_o my_o way_n above_o your_o way_n the_o mind_n and_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n be_v immutable_a whereas_o our_o thought_n be_v changeable_a every_o moment_n upon_o the_o least_o occasion_n he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o change_v not_o and_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o consume_v second_o the_o word_n may_v be_v refer_v to_o the_o godly_a thus_o their_o mind_n be_v stay_v and_o fix_v on_o god_n godly_a and_o therefore_o he_o will_v keep_v they_o in_o peace_n our_o interpreter_n have_v so_o expound_v the_o word_n and_o this_o seem_v best_a to_o agree_v with_o they_o but_o you_o will_v ask_v what_o be_v this_o to_o have_v our_o mind_n stay_v on_o god_n i_o answer_v unto_o this_o first_o be_v require_v that_o our_o heart_n be_v withdraw_v from_o all_o thing_n else_o we_o can_v have_v our_o mind_n on_o god_n and_o the_o creature_n both_o for_o we_o can_v serve_v two_o master_n hence_o our_o bless_a lord_n require_v of_o his_o disciple_n that_o they_o deny_v themselves_o and_o tell_v they_o that_o none_o can_v be_v his_o disciple_n except_o he_o hate_v father_n and_o mother_n wise_a and_o child_n etc._n etc._n so_o it_o we_o will_v have_v our_o heart_n stay_v on_o god_n they_o must_v settle_v upon_o nothing_o beside_o he_o this_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o obtain_n of_o our_o peace_n which_o we_o can_v enjoy_v so_o long_o as_o our_o heart_n be_v fix_v upon_o any_o creature_n the_o reason_n be_v clear_a necessary_a first_o the_o creature_n be_v transitory_a and_o changeable_a and_o therefore_o the_o heart_n set_v upon_o they_o must_v needs_o change_v with_o they_o 2._o while_o as_o the_o heart_n be_v inordinate_o set_v on_o the_o creature_n the_o affection_n be_v contrary_a to_o sound_v reason_n and_o our_o action_n be_v contrary_a to_o god_n and_o his_o law_n so_o during_o this_o inordinat_a love_n we_o have_v a_o war_n which_o stand_v not_o with_o peace_n 3._o as_o long_o as_o the_o heart_n do_v cleave_v inordinate_o to_o any_o creature_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o continual_a fear_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o mind_n for_o either_o we_o fear_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o obtain_v that_o which_o we_o love_v or_o that_o we_o shall_v loss_n it_o when_o it_o be_v obtain_v or_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o recover_v it_o when_o it_o be_v lose_v either_o we_o fear_v that_o our_o will_n shall_v be_v cross_v or_o suppose_v our_o desire_n second_v we_o in_o all_o thing_n yet_o our_o guilty_a conscience_n accuse_v and_o torment_v we_o 4._o there_o be_v no_o creature_n how_o perfect_o soever_o enjoy_v by_o we_o that_o can_v give_v satisfaction_n to_o out_o soul_n without_o which_o they_o can_v have_v no_o peace_n such_o be_v the_o nobility_n of_o our_o soul_n such_o be_v the_o excellency_n of_o our_o mind_n and_o will_n that_o a_o world_n yea_o a_o thousand_o world_n know_v belove_a and_o possess_v can_v give_v they_o rest_v &_o contentment_n either_o the_o object_n delight_v in_o be_v unproportionated_a to_o the_o soul_n as_o the_o sound_n to_o the_o eye_n or_o the_o colour_n to_o the_o ear_n or_o at_o least_o be_v unable_a to_o equal_v the_o infinite_a desire_n of_o it_o this_o none_o can_v do_v but_o god_n o_o lord_n thou_o have_v make_v we_o for_o thyself_o say_v holy_a august_n and_o our_o heart_n be_v restless_a till_o they_o rest_v in_o thou_o thus_o when_o ever_o we_o will_v have_v peace_n or_o have_v our_o heart_n on_o god_n we_o must_v withdraw_v they_o from_o the_o creature_n the_o next_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v for_o stay_v our_o heart_n upon_o god_n with_o be_v that_o we_o join_v unto_o he_o by_o sincere_a love_n and_o by_o humble_a submission_n of_o our_o desire_n &_o will_n to_o he_o so_o that_o we_o love_v nothing_o but_o in_o he_o or_o for_o he_o desire_v nothing_o but_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o his_o will_n this_o be_v the_o solid_a way_n to_o peace_n when_o man_n will_v and_o will_v the_o same_o thing_n than_o there_o be_v true_a
