In the fore part of the Night, all internal Powers of my Mind were introverted, and acted forth in Prayer, for our Spirits going forward in the Vineyard work, and to be inabled to indure the heat of the Day in it. And I was considering, how our Days were run, and our Bodies like Flowers were fading and declining, having daily the foregoing strokes of Mortal Death upon them. Therefore I had a deep sense and concern for my self and Aged Friend, herein to take all advantage of the present time, lest we should be prevented of what we so much have desired to reach unto. Being vehement in Prayer for it, I had this Word, If ye do believe for it with a perfect Heart, and wait and turn not aside, though your Bones as a Potsheard be dried up, yet Marrow and Strength shall be renewed in another degree of Youth, then what hath been comprehended. Therefore keep your selves only from the Sickness of Sin, and you need fear nothing else.
Be the first to react on this!
