Matthew15:26

But she was that well resolved Christian, whose part Luther saith it is to believe things invisible, to [illegible: 1 word] for things deferred, and to love God when he shews himself most angry with him, and most opposite to him. Our Saviour was no sooner gon from this Canaanitesse but he heals the [illegible: 2 words], [illegible: 1 word] dilata, & a [illegible: 1 word] Deu [illegible: 2 words] contrarium Luth. [illegible: 1 word]. 30. 18. [illegible: 1 word] and dumb man (though far weaker in faith then her) at first word, Mark. 7. 33. and vers. 30 of this chapter the Galileans no sooner laid then sick and lame friends at [illegible: 1 word] feet, but he cured them [illegible: 1 word] any more a do. He is a God of judgement, and knowes how and when to deal forth his favours. He laies heaviest [illegible: 1 word] on the strongest backs, and proportions our afflictions to our [illegible: 1 word], holding us off for deliverance, till [illegible: 1 word] finds us [illegible: 1 word] for it: and giving us hearts to wait, and want it till his time is come.
