Thou hast bid all that are weary, and […] laden in soul, that are troubled in conscience with the sense of their sins, to come unto thee: my heart thinks of thy command, and invitation, I come to thee, I am weary, and heavy laden. First let us think of the encouragement, that is our warrant, and then yield present obedience: And then what will be the issue? what will spring from it? when the heart and obedience join with the command, that there is a meeting, that they concentrate the heart, and obedience: God bids the heart obey, the heart saith I do obey, when these meet, the issue must be exceeding comfortable, it cannot be otherwise. When the obedient heart meets God in his command, in his promise.
