AN Heathen finds no Fault in Christ Jesus: Yet, Hast not thou, O my Soul, found fault with him, when thou hast disputed his Precepts, thought them hard and troublesome, and his Commandments grievous? Hast not thou blamed him in so doing, when thou hast thought that he hath not consulted thine Ease, nor con∣sidered thy Circumstances, and tied thee up to hard Meat; hath not this been harbouring strange Thoughts of him? Can he that is the Fountain of Wisdom, do any thing that is irrational? Or canst thou think he did not design thy Good, when he commanded that which crosses the Inclinations of Flesh and Blood? And ought not this to make thee say to him for the future, Speak, Lord, for thy Servant hears?
