To attend upon God in his Ordinances. [ 1185]
IT is usuall for ships to ride a long time in a road-steed,* 1.1 when they might be in
the Haven; and wherefore do they so? wherefore, but that they may be in
the winds way, to take the first opportunity that shall be offered, for their inten∣ded
voyage. Even thus should all good Christians do, anchor, as it were, in the house
of God, even then when they seem to be becalmed, that they cannot stir and move
themselves about holy duties, as they were wont to do; yet even then, ride it
out, hearken what God will say to their souls, wait upon him in the use of Means;
not in an Anabaptisticall phrenzy, refusing to attend upon duty, till the spirit move
them; but look up unto God for life, and seek it from him, in their attendance upon
his holy Ordinances.
