anxiously careful nor be troubled
with disquietude about the Ma

And this our present Busi,

Conviction have free Access unto
our Minds; an abiding place
there and constant Influ-
:ence upon our future Actions
So We Should endeavour to resist and
Suppress Such Cares as we regard
the honours and glory of God
GOD is a Being very jealous of his
Honour and Glory. His Glory
he will not give unto Another
nor his Praise to graven Images
nor hold them guiltless who
regard the Creature more than
esteem the Creator who is over all
GOD blessed for evermore And
Such anxious Cares about the Things
of the World reflect Dishonour up-
:on God as they betray a distrust
of Him who is ye great Superinten
:Ant of the Universe and who has
revealed Himself unto us under
the Character of the Preserver of
Man. The Man of Anxiety and
Sollicitude about temporal affairs
seems to forget (if he ever noticed)
the words of y.h that We cannot
by [Lahing?] Wish add one Cubit
to our Stature and that the very
hairs of our heads are all
numbered
