It were an argument of an excellent spirit indeed, if when after our Obs. 3 strength is restored and any mercy anew given into us, we would study how we might glorify God with the same. Have our arms been broken, & hath God bound them up for us? O let us now use them for God. But this people were far from this disposition, they imagined evil against God: As if a patient which is cured of ⟨p. 694⟩some desperate wound,1 or disease, should seek to stab his Chirurgeon or Physician.
