He gave us being that had none; preserved us in that being;1 restored us voluntarily fallen, unto a better being; and will glorify us with the best, at the day of the Lord Jesus. 2Then let the Tongue know, Si non reddet Deo faciendo quae debet, reddet ei patiendo quae debet: If it will not pay God the debt it owes him in an active thankfulness, it shall pay him in a passive painfulness. Let the meditation here of put our tongues into tune. A word fitly spoken,3 is like Apples of gold in pictures of silver.
