11 Take due notice of Gods good will to thee, and distinctly observe the several evidences that he giveth thereof. Kindness not observed is as no kindness. But when thou canst in truth say of Gods goodness, as he did who said, That my soul knoweth right well, then will thy judgement 2be convinced of the equity of the duty which thou owest to God: which is a forcible means to bring the will to yield thereunto. For this end learn to make *a catalogue of Gods mercies, and to set them in order.
