Therefore care day by day, & hour 1by hour earnestly to keep the covenant of the Lord thy God, and to record therein day and night, and to do thy part unto the uttermost of thy power. And as for Gods part, let him care for it himself, and believe thou his words steadfastly: and be sure that heaven and earth shall sooner perish then one jot bide behind of that he hath promised. And for thine own part also, care not of that manner, as though thou shouldest do all alone. Nay: God hath first promised to help thee: Secondarily to accept thine hart, and that little y• thou art able to do, be it never so imperfect: Thirdly though wind, weather & the stream carry thee clean contrary to thy purpose, yet because thou bidest still in thy profession, ready ⟨p. 236⟩to turn the right course as soon as y• tempest is a little over blown, God promiseth to forgive that, & not yt less to fulfil his promises of one jot.
