The application of redemption

let it be matter of Commodity that may accrue, men are as full of their questions, as the Sun-shine is full of motes; what? and when? and after what manner may occasions best be […], to compass ⟨p. 568⟩a mans content? This seems good, but how may that be avoided? That is more profitable, but how may this or that inconvenience be prevented? And yet as though men had no souls, or had nothing to do with Grace, and Life, and Salvation, they have nothing to say for Heaven, nay, nor about Heaven. Our hearts work not this way, which argues the Word never wrought kindly, either for the discovery of thy sin, or the breaking of thy heart for it. If men were wounded they would fill your ears with their sighs, and your hearts with their complaints. So here, they would not give God rest, nor you rest, if their hearts were restless in their distresses; thou keepest mine eyes waking, I cannot sleep, says the Psalmist, Psal. 77. 4. God will keep your Eyes waking if ever he work kindly.
