God regardeth and rewardeth his People. [ 828]
WHen Ahasuerus read in the Book of the Records of the Chronicles, and there found how Mordecai had discovered a plot of Treason against his Person,* 1.1 he did not lay the Book aside, and slightly passed by such a piece of service, but en∣quires, What Honour, and what Dignity had been done to Mordecai? It seems if the King had thought on, or read him sooner, he had rewarded him sooner: But God hath ever in his eye all the Records and Chronicles of his Peoples actions, he reads their journalls every day, and where he meets with any that have done or spoken any thing aright for him;* 1.2 the enquireth what honour, what dignity hath been done for this Man? If none hath been done, he will do it himself; if any thing hath been done, he will do yet more: Not a sigh, not a tear, not a thought for the glory of Christ, shall fall unregarded, unrewarded.
