THis may teach us how to carry our selves towards God, our Father. We should labour to be like the Angels. Our Saviour hath taught us to pray, That the Will of God may be done on Earth, as it is done in Heaven.* 1.1 We who are God's Sons on Earth, should imitate the Sons of God in Heaven. We should serve God as cheerfully, and with the like Alacrity of Heart as the holy Angels; and la∣bour not only to imitate the Angels, and be like them, but also to imitate God himself; for He hath set himself before us, for our direct and immediate Example. Mat. 5.44.
