The Fifth Performance of Providence.
V.
Thus you hear, how instrumental Providence hath been, in ordering the Means and Occasions of the greatest Mercies for your souls. Let us now take into consideration,1 another excellent Performance of Providence respecting the good of your bodies and souls too, in respect of that Employment and Calling it hath ordered for you in this world; for it hath not only an Eye upon your well being in the world to come, but upon your well being in this world also; and that very much depends upon the Station and Vocation to which it calls you.
