Again, this return and answer, as it wa• 1present, so likewise it was a pliable obedience, Thy face will I seek: It is a speech of a ready cheerful, pliable heart. Where the Spirit o• God works, it makes not only present, and quick, but cheerful, and pliable: For the Spirit of God is like fire, that softens the hardness of the heart, that naturally is like iron, and makes it pliable. Gods people are a voluntary people, as it is Psal. 110. a people of devotion, 2of readiness of will, and cheerfulness, a free hearted people, a people set at large they are lead with a Royal spirit, a spirit above their own; and that makes that easy, and pleasant to them, that otherwise is difficult, and impossible to nature.
