Two treatises of Mr. Jeremiah Burroughs. The first of earthly-mindedness

If you would walk with God, Take heed of formality in all holy duties; be laborious in holy duties, take pains with your hearts in them, labour for the power of godliness in holy duties, you must strive to get up to God in them: It were well if when we perform holy duties we did but keep close to the Duty its self, few go so far: But it's one thing to keep close to the Duty, and another thing to keep close to God in the Duty; we must labour not only to mind what we are about, but to keep close to God in the Duty, to find God in all duties that we perform, and in the use of all ordinances to take pains to find God there, and not to satisfy & quiet our hearts except we find God in the duties that we do perform; we have a notable Scripture for this, in ⟨p. 327⟩Exod. 20. 24. In all places where I record my Name, I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee. That is, where ever there is any Ordinance, or any holy Duty to be performed, there's a recording of Gods Name. And saith he, I will come unto thee, and there I will bless thee. If you would walk with God, you must go where God is, and be in those places where God uses to come: now the walk where God uses to walk it is, in his Ordinances, in his Worship, therefore you must be very spiritual in worship, and sanctify the Name of God there; (according to that that we have treated upon at large) you must take pains there, stir up your ¹hearts and all that is within you to walk with God there, and not be satisfied except you have something of God there. It's a notable speech of Bernard, I never go from thee without thee: when ever I come to any holy duty and leave it, I never leave it but I have thee with it: we must not be satisfied except we meet with God in holy duties.
