He That Is Down Needs

Take Heed Of Driving So Hard After This World, As To Hinder Thyself And Family From Those Duties Towards God, Which Thou Art By Grace Obliged To; As Private Prayer, Reading The Scriptures, And Christian Conference. It Is A Base Thing For Men So To Spend Themselves And Families After This World, As That They Disengage Their Heart To God's Worship.

Such Is The Effect Of The Grace Of God In The Heart Of A Pilgrim; While On One Hand He Sees The Propensity Of His Evil Nature To Every Sin Which Has Been Committed By Others, And Is Humbled; He Also Confesses, That, By No Power Of His Own, Is He Preserved, But Ever Gives The Glory To The God Of All Grace, By Whose Power Alone He Is Kept From Falling.

If That A Pearl May In A Toad's Head Dwell, And May Be Found Too In An Oyster Shell.

He That Lives In Sin And Looks For Happiness Hereafter Is Likehimthat Soweth Cockleand Thinkstofill Hisbarnwith Wheat Or Barley.

He That Is Down Needs Fear No Fall. He That Is Low, No Pride; He That Is Humble, Ever Shall Have God To Be His Guide.
