Fourth Consideration.1
- 14. Consid.
You wait for good, and it comes not; but is your will brought to a due submission to the Will of God about it? Certainly God will have you come to this before you enjoy your desires. Enjoyment of your desires is the thing that will please you, but resignation of your wills, is that which is pleasing to God: if your hearts cannot come to this, mercies cannot come to you. David was made to wait long for the mercy promised him, yea, and to be content without it before he enjoyed it, Psal. 131. 2 he was brought to be as a weaned Child, and so must you.
