To all the SAINTS BELOVED OF GOD, And Sanctified through OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, Grace and Peace be Multiplied.
The dispensations of God, though never so seemingly strange towards his people, have always been propitious and favourable: according to that of the Apostle, he maketh all things work together for good to those that love him, and are called according to his purpose. How great love should we then have for them who love God, and are so beloved of him!

My Friends, many there are whose beginning is better than their latter end: but blessed are they who dye in the Lord, who have an Interest in the Everlasting Covenant, and in the sure mercies of David: though God may visit their Iniquities with a Rod, and their Transgressions with Stripes, yet he will never suffer his loving kindness to depart. Who would then, depart from that God, who sticks so close to his? If we leave him whither shall we go? surely to broken Cisterns that hold no water.
