my_o face_n my_o heart_n answer_v and_o say_v thy_o face_n lord_n will_v i_o seek_v it_o be_v observable_a in_o the_o hebrew_n tongue_n that_o the_o scripture_n use_v two_o word_n for_o meditation_n and_o both_o signify_v to_o speak_v there_o be_v in_o divine_a meditation_n such_o a_o close_a discourse_n between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n and_o though_o all_o christian_n be_v more_o or_o less_o exercise_v in_o divine_a meditation_n yet_o to_o hold_v a_o close_a and_o constant_a intercouse_n with_o god_n in_o it_o be_v very_o peculiar_a to_o christian_n of_o good_a experience_n and_o maturity_n two_o they_o bemoan_v themselves_o familiar_o to_o god_n in_o all_o their_o grievance_n and_o he_o answer_v they_o in_o the_o consolation_n of_o his_o spirit_n we_o have_v a_o expression_n of_o this_o of_o david_n in_o psalm_n 142.2_o i_o pour_v out_o my_o complaint_n before_o he_o i_o show_v before_o he_o my_o trouble_n if_o any_o thing_n be_v amiss_o with_o they_o they_o run_v present_o to_o he_o with_o their_o complaint_n and_o so_o he_o ease_v they_o and_o relieve_v they_o psalm_n 34.18_o when_o i_o say_v my_o foot_n slip_v thy_o mercy_n o_o lord_n hold_v i_o up_o christian_n be_v full_a of_o complaint_n to_o he_o every_o thing_n that_o trouble_v and_o grieve_v they_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o complaint_n and_o so_o they_o give_v he_o frequent_a occasion_n to_o express_v his_o kindness_n to_o they_o it_o be_v true_a christian_n be_v use_v to_o this_o way_n of_o open_v their_o grief_n to_o god_n from_o their_o youth_n up_o but_o be_v much_o more_o free_a and_o familiar_a in_o it_o after_o they_o have_v gain_v experience_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o be_v establish_v in_o their_o confidence_n in_o he_o and_o so_o they_o grow_v more_o inward_a with_o he_o three_o they_o go_v confident_o to_o he_o for_o the_o supply_n of_o all_o their_o want_n and_o he_o satisfy_v they_o with_o gracious_a answer_n of_o their_o prayer_n the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n be_v in_o all_o christian_n but_o they_o be_v well-grown_a christian_n that_o can_v come_v bold_o in_o all_o case_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n and_o perceive_v when_o they_o be_v answer_v according_a to_o that_o in_o 1_o john_n 5_o 14._o this_o be_v the_o confidence_n we_o have_v in_o he_o that_o if_o we_o ask_v any_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o will_n he_o hear_v we_o a_o christian_n that_o pray_v the_o prayer_n of_o a_o wellestablished_n faith_n as_o he_o come_v to_o god_n in_o good_a assurance_n of_o acceptance_n so_o he_o find_v his_o prayer_n one_o way_n or_o other_o answer_v to_o his_o satisfaction_n david_n find_v a_o answer_n to_o his_o prayer_n for_o the_o life_n of_o his_o child_n in_o a_o acquiescence_n in_o the_o now_o discover_v will_n of_o god_n 2_o sam._n 12.23_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o he_o but_o he_o shall_v not_o return_v to_o i_o david_n take_v comfort_n in_o this_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o he_o he_o arise_v and_o go_v to_o the_o house_n of_o god_n and_o worship_v what_o else_o will_v he_o have_v do_v if_o the_o child_n life_n have_v be_v grant_v why_o he_o can_v have_v do_v no_o better_o for_o he_o have_v satisfaction_n and_o be_v assure_v that_o he_o shall_v go_v to_o his_o child_n thus_o the_o apostle_n paul_n find_v a_o good_a answer_n to_o his_o prayer_n for_o the_o depart_n of_o satan_n messenger_n 2_o cor._n 12.9_o my_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a for_o thou_o now_o this_o answer_n be_v matter_n of_o gladness_n to_o the_o apostle_n most_o glad_o therefore_o will_v i_o rejoice_v in_o my_o infirmity_n and_o christ_n himself_o have_v his_o prayer_n answer_v even_o in_o that_o which_o he_o fear_v and_o this_o be_v parallel_n to_o that_o of_o david_n psalm_n 65.5_o by_o terrible_a thing_n in_o righteousness_n will_v thou_o answer_v we_o o_o god_n of_o our_o salvation_n terrible_a thing_n thing_n to_o be_v wonder_v at_o four_o they_o express_v their_o joy_n to_o he_o in_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o he_o inspire_v they_o with_o the_o hope_n of_o more_o it_o be_v a_o special_a part_n of_o friendly_a intimacy_n to_o impart_v our_o joy_n to_o our_o friend_n and_o tell_v they_o the_o thing_n that_o please_v we_o to_o show_v they_o such_o good_n or_o rarity_n as_o we_o have_v about_o we_o wherewith_o we_o ourselves_o be_v take_v so_o christian_n and_o especial_o those_o that_o be_v grow_v up_o to_o good_a maturity_n be_v much_o addict_v to_o acknowledge_v the_o mercy_n that_o god_n have_v show_v they_o and_o not_o only_o pour_v out_o their_o sorrow_n but_o express_v their_o joy_n

property_n of_o a_o well-grown_a christian_a to_o be_v much_o dispose_v to_o thanksgiving_n and_o tell_v not_o only_a other_o but_o god_n himself_o what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o his_o soul_n and_o herein_o christian_n have_v a_o comfortable_a converse_n with_o god_n in_o as_o much_o as_o he_o not_o only_o accept_v their_o praise_n but_o usual_o warm_v and_o cheer_v their_o heart_n in_o
