Job27:10
10. Will he delight himself in the Almighty ? will he always call upon God ?
Will he be able to delight and satisfie himself with God alone, and with his Love and favour, when he hath no other matter of delight? This I now do, and this an hypocrite cannot do, because his heart is chiefly set upon the World, and when that fails him, his heart sinks, and the thoughts of God are unfavoury and troublesom to him.
He may by his afflictions be driven to Prayer but if God doth not speedily answer him, he falls into despair and neglect of God and of Prayer, whereas I constantly continue in Prayer, notwithstanding the grievousness, and the long continuance of my Calamities.
