Christ inviting sinners to come to him for rest

Ninthly, And lastly; though it be under such a burden as is almost intolerable Yet it is not Sunk down in Despair, under its burden, as a beast while it is under a burden, for a little while it will struggle and strive under it, but afterwards it will lie down and be sullen and die under it. But now those that are burdened with sin in such a manner as the Lord doth use to prepare the heart for his Son by; they feel the weight indeed of it, but so feel the weight as they labour, that is, their hearts are yet active and stirring and working, attending still upon any directions that God hath to give them out of his word, their hearts do keep active and crying to God and waiting to know what the mind of God is towards them, and are willing to do any thing that God shall require of them, they do not lie Sullen and dead as it were under the burden of their Sins. Now if there be any Soul in this condition expressed in the nine particulars before mentioned, if there be any such as these, Know, that these are they that Christ doth in a more especial manner call unto, and Saith; Come to me ye that are thus weary and heavy Laden and I will give you rest.
