Consolation, to them that have a good conscience that §3they always every where have their safety with them, because they carry grace in their harts, and God carrieth them in his ⟨p. 28⟩hands. That is true of every faithful servant of God, that Abigail did speak concerning David: that their soul is 1bound in the bundle of life with God, it lieth not loose, and scattered for enemies to find, and take up, or tread upon at their pleasure: but it is in Gods own custody, and bound up, that it shall neither drop down, nor be wrested from him. He will defend them in war, and feed them in dearth, and preserve them in pestilence, and death shall never come before they may comfortably bid it welcome. Job. 5. 19. 20.
