1_o i_o answer_v 1_o in_o general_n than_o thou_o meet_v with_o god_n and_o have_v communion_n with_o god_n in_o duty_n when_o god_n have_v enable_v thou_o to_o act_v grace_n in_o a_o duty_n a_o

duty_n to_o act_v thy_o faith_n to_o close_v with_o promise_n to_o act_v thy_o repentance_n for_o sin_n to_o act_v love_n to_o god_n all_o or_o any_o of_o these_o grace_n thy_o soul_n have_v then_o communion_n with_o god_n in_o duty_n 2_o again_o when_o the_o performance_n of_o a_o duty_n do_v lead_v the_o soul_n in_o better_a frame_n a_o more_o humble_a frame_n or_o in_o a_o more_o watchful_a frame_n when_o the_o heart_n be_v more_o quicken_v or_o more_o break_a when_o the_o heart_n be_v far_o set_v against_o sin_n more_o resolve_v to_o walk_v with_o god_n and_o obey_v he_o when_o the_o frame_n of_o a_o man_n spirit_n be_v change_v or_o better_v in_o any_o of_o these_o way_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o thou_o have_v have_v communion_n with_o god_n in_o duty_n though_o god_n have_v not_o come_v in_o with_o fullness_n of_o comfort_n with_o chearing_n or_o joy_n in_o this_o life_n most_o of_o our_o communion_n lie_v in_o quicken_a grace_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v our_o

his_o heart_n be_v not_o run_v out_o with_o his_o prayer_n he_o have_v affection_n of_o prayer_n when_o the_o prayer_n be_v do_v he_o rise_v up_o pray_v from_o prayer_n the_o much_o he_o have_v do_v

and_o indeed_o if_o a_o man_n have_v weep_v a_o sea_n of_o tear_n and_o his_o affection_n of_o mourning_n do_v end_n with_o his_o expression_n of_o sorrow_n he_o have_v not_o yet_o weep_v at_o all_o nor_o shed_v one_o true_a tear_n of_o godly_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n so_o again_o when_o he_o have_v pray_v still_o his_o heart_n be_v above_o his_o action_n and_o he_o rise_v up_o pray_v from_o prayer_n with_o a_o pray_a spirit_n affection_n when_o the_o prayer_n be_v do_v this_o be_v that_o which_o make_v christ_n commend_v the_o poor_a widow_n charity_n she_o give_v but_o two_o mite_n and_o yet_o he_o say_v she_o have_v give_v more_o than_o all_o the_o rest_n her_o heart_n be_v big_a than_o her_o action_n her_o affection_n than_o her_o expression_n of_o charity_n other_o they_o
