Christ inviting sinners to come to him for rest

It is with the heart of a Believer, as it is with the fruits of the earth, you know, that the frost may keep down some weeds, but it is the sun-shine, it is the beams of the sun, and the warm beams that makes the fruit to ripen and to grow up, that fruit that grows in the sun is soonest ripe, your grass that grows in the orchard is sour and the beast will not eat it, and other herbs that grow in the shade comes to no maturity, nor to be so good as those that grow in the sun, fruit that grows upon the wall, how quickly doth that grow ripe, whereas the other that grows in the shade withers; so there are some that live altogether under Legal fears, and trouble of conscience perhaps they have sometimes fruit but it is sour fruit, it is not so sweet fruit as comes from those that are under the sun-shine of the Gospel, that have the shine of the love of God upon their hearts, their fruit is sweet, and they thrive better, and look more lovely and live a more amiable and lovely life then the lives of others. And this is another way, how Christ comes to be our sanctification in shedding abroad the love of God into the heart; and that the scripture is full of, how the love of God is shed abroad in Jesus Christ.
