The next thing I will fpeake of, is tree im- proovement of God when he is knowne,to truft in him, to pitch our truft and confidence upon him Theyfhalltrait in the name ofthe Lord. For there muff be an applicationof the foule to God : we mutt lay our foules upon God; though hee be aRock, yet wee mutt lay our foules upon him, and though he be a foundation, yet we muff build upon him and his truth revealed. There is an adxquate comfort in God and in the Scriptures, and fuperabundant too, to all our necefhrties what. flever, it tranfcends them all, there is more in the Li)! ing then we want our felves : yet notwithftan- ding there mutt bee grace in the foule , to repaire toGod, there mutt be an hand, anempty beggers hand ( fuch as faith is) to reach that hclpe that Gud yecldes ; theremutt bee a wing to flyetoour Tower; thewing ofthe foule is this trail and faith; and when thefe twomeerÿfaithortruf ,and GOD, What a fweet meeting is there ! For emptineffe, and fr lneffe, poverty , and riches, weakneffe and ftrength,-o meet together,thefe will grafpe fweet- ly : for the excellency, and al.fufficiencyof the one, and thenecefficyof the other meeting toge- ther, breeds a fweet correfpondency. Weemutt trait therefore in the Name of the Log D; that is the way to improve whatfoever is in God, for our good. Faith , thenature of it is, (after it bath applied it felfe to the grounds of comfort ;) to draw ver- rue and ftrength fromGod. Of it fèlfeitisthe moft beggerly grace of all : Love is a rich grace, I i 4 but Ohferv. God mull be trutìed tn. Faith, the :la- , careof it.
