excellent Men, prove wicked, and scour∣ges to the Church, and what a miserable world it is that we are in, even sunk in∣to darkness, wickedness, and self-de∣struction, like the Suburbs of Hell, I have many times rejoyced, but never grieved, that I never had a Child. And why then should I mourn, if I had one, and God had quickly taken him a∣way.
II. I confess the death of ungodly Kin∣dred, is a humbling case: To think where they are, as Gods Word tells us of all the unconverted and unholy, and to think that they are past all help and hope, remediless for ever. But yet we have all this to com∣mand our patient submission to God.
1. God, who is absolute Lord of his Creatures, is wiser and more merciful than we, and doth all well, and to his Glory: And his Will is still fulfilled, which is the end of all: And if we knew what he knoweth, we should rest satisfied in his works, as better than our Will and way would have been.
2. When we come to Heaven we shall be fully reconciled to all the severest Pro∣vidences of God: For our mind and Will shall be conformed to Gods.
