Have they resigned and given up themselves and all they have to God, by a solemn covenant, and will they fret when he disposeth of them? Didst thou not say, O believer, in the day when thy heart was stung with sin, and the terrors of God made thee afraid, O let me have Jesus Christ for my Saviour and portion, and I will be content, though I should be stricken with boils like Job, or beg my bread with Lazarus? Now, God tries thee, if thou wilt stand to thy word: O beware of retracting.
Hath not ...that soul enough, who hath an all-sufficient God for his portion? If God be thine in covenant, that comprehends all things.
5thly. -It doth discompose and unfit the soul for any duty. It is ill sailing in a storm, so it is ill praying when the heart is in a storm of disquiet and despondency.
6thly. Your fainting under affliction, and carrying as if the consolations of God were small, is enough to stum- ble others at religion, and make them call the truth of it in question. When they see those that profess religion, and have oft declared that their rejoicing is in Christ Je- sus as their portion, begin to sink and despond under out- ward affliction, O may they not be tempted to say, Where is the truth of religion?
