The presence of God is most desirable; what is it that Saints wish and rejoice in comparatively to the presence of God? My soul thirsteth for God; when shall I come and appear before God? saith David, (Psal. 42.2.) How greedy was he of the presence of God? how did he (as it were) tell the clocks, and count every hour a day, every day a year, till he was restored to it. And in another place, how earnestly doth he deprecate his banishment from the face of God, as the sorest punishment, (Psal. 51.11.) Cast me not away from thy presence. Yet here Job confesseth, I am troubled at his presence.
