(1.) He will pardon our Sins, and Frailties, and spare us and pity us, notwithstanding our ill deservings. Psal. 103.13. Like as a Father pitieth his Children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him. Mal. 3.17. They shall be ⟨p. 367⟩mine, saith the Lord of Hosts, in that Day when I make up my Jewels, and I will spare them, as a Man spareth his won Son that serveth him. Surely this is a Grace we stand in need of, because of our manifold Infirmities, and daily Failings.

(2.) He will give Grace, that we may ••rve him better. Luke 11.13. If ye then, b•••g evil, know how to give good gifts to your Children: how much more shall your Heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that ask him? Do but cry to him, as an hungry Child to his Father for Bread, and God will not deny this great Gift to you.
