Concerning afflictions.

1. Slight not any affliction, nor let it over∣presse thee; consider it's appointed, Rom. 8. 29. There is a blessing in every crosse, eye that more then the sharpnesse of the affliction, know the longer it continues, the more thou maist get by it.

2. Consider that nothing can befall thee, but what is appointed by God, 1 Thes. 3. 3.

3. Search to know the cause why he sends his affliction, that so thou maist be reformed by it.

4. If thou art the Lords, stay thy selfe in the love of God, and attend upon him for the time, manner, and measure of thy delive∣rance.
