Justify God’s wisdom in all his proceedings concerning your self and others: his power in sustaining, his providence in maintaining, his Justice in punishing, his love in correcting, his bounty in promising, his faithfulness in performing, his grace in giving , his mercy in taking away: and in everything say from the heart, blessed be the name of the Lord
In every company receive some good and do some also according to your ability. Leave no ill favour behind you, neither do hurt by speech, silence, countenance or example. In your praises be discreet, in saluting courteous, in admonishing brotherly, and wise in moving and entertaining speech or conference.
It is fearful to sin, but much more to lie in it and therefore register all your sins daily, bewail them at fit times, pray for pardon of them, and strengthen against them. Don’t think that some sins are just ‘little’ ones, because God’s law has condemned it and Christ has died for it, or else you must eternally.
