And that the powers of our Souls should, in their most flourishing and vigorous state, be offer'd to the great Author of all our Faculties? Ought not the most attentive Regards of our Vnderstandings to be employ'd in contemplating him that has made us Rational, and the most sprightly and eager Sallies of our Wills to be directed towards him who has made us desiring Creatures? Certainly as God is our Maker, he deserves as well as requires that we most seriously contemplate, and most intensely love him, on the account both of his own Infinite Perfections, and of the Emanations of his Goodness toward us his Creatures; |
