I knew them in the wilderness, but now it's otherwise.

From the connexion note first,
It's better to want the comforts of the creature, and to have Gods 1care and protection, than to have abundance of the creature, and ⟨p. 453⟩to live of our selves. We do not love a depending life, but it's safest; many have more of Gods presence with them, and protection over them when they are in the wilderness, when they are in adversity, than they have when they come into prosperity, when they come to enjoy abundance of the creatures; God knows them when they are in afflictions, and they knew God, but when they come into prosperity, God doth neither know them so much, nor they know God so much.
