"It is said Acts 16.14 that the Lord
opened Lydias heart. The heart
is then [savingly?] opened when
it freely sets out itself upon God
all its streams run into the
Lord & when it takes in & takes
down God into the debth of the
soul. The heart then opened to
the Lord when God is come in
will close upon him. Abide
with me thou hast entered
upon thine habitation oh let
this be thy dwelling forever.
This must be farther[?] added that
with God it takes in all things
of God his Word his Ordinances
his ways & all his dispensations
with his love his laws with
his comforts his councel with
his councels his corrections
with Thee I accept of all that
thine both thy yoke & thy
cross thyself Lord thy love
Lord & what thou wilt with
Thee."
"Those that walk closely with God
do dwell in the secret of his presence
under the [??et] dews & influences of his Grace"
