Nov. 23. Examining my self about a work of Grace, I had some Comfort from Ps. 40. 8. Delight in doing the will of God is an Argument of the Law written in the heart. Now I found that I had a delight especially in some duties, as visiting the Sick, comforting of distressed Consciences, &c.

I was somewhat terrified from that word in Job. ch. 42. 7. I was afraid least in my Preach∣ing I should sometimes speak those things of God that were not right, and soon after going to Prayer, I was in time of Prayer comforted from Joh. 16. 13. The Spirit shall guide you into all truth.
