two.
Again a man truly bruised judges sin the greatest evil and the favour of God the greatest good.
three.
He would rather hear of mercy than of a kingdom.
four, he has poor opinions of himself and thinks that he is not worth the earth he treads on.
five towards others he is not censorious, as being taken up at home, but is full of sympathy and compassion to those who are under God's hand.
6.
He thinks that those who walk in the comforts of God's Spirit are the happiest men in the world.
seven.
He trembles at the Word of God Isaiah sixty six two.
and honors the very feet of those blessed instruments that bring peace unto him Romans ten fifteen.
eight.
He is more taken up with the inward exercises of a broken heart than with formality.
and is yet careful to use all sanctified means to convey comfort.
But how shall we come to this state of mind?
Answer First we must conceive of bruising, either as a state into which God brings us or as a duty to be performed by us.
Both are here meant and
we must join with God in bruising ourselves.
When He humbles us, let us humble ourselves and not stand out against Him, for then He will redouble His strokes.
Let us justify Christ in all His chastisements, knowing that all His dealing towards us is to cause us to return into our own hearts.
