'Tis good for us even to despair of help from creatures, and to say the least wound (if but the scratch of a pin) is incurable by all the art, means, and medicines which this world can administer, but to say our wound (though never so deep, dangerous, and deadly) is absolutely incurable, is our sin. While we ruin our selves (that is, while we provoke God to ruin us, yet) there is hope in God; O Israel, thou hast destroyed thy self, but in me is thine help (Hos: 13.9.) despair as much as you will of creatures help, but still hope in God.
