Thirdly, The next Grace is Love: Where there is Love, there will be Labour, Heb. 6.10. For God is not Unrighteous, to forget your work and labour of Love: 1 Thes. 1.3. Remembering without ceasing your work of Faith, and labour of Love, and patience of Hope: Revel. 2.3, 4. And hast born, and hast patience, and for my names sake hast laboured and hast not fainted: Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first Love: And Love is said to endure all things, 1 Cor. 13.7. 'Twas Love made Christ to suffer Hunger and Weariness, and to forbear to refresh himself for the good of Souls; 'twas Love made him endure the bitter Agonies of the Cross: Love puts strength and life into the Soul, addeth wings and feet to the Body, spareth no pains nor cost. Keep up this Grace, and you have an over-ruling bent upon your hearts.
