"My meditation of Him shall be sweet." Psalm 104:34


On meditation

Christ the Rock in a weary land
If God gives Christ, what can he withhold
Submission
Comfortable conclusions

Resignation

Feeble nature
Worldly losses and misfortunes universal
Providence
True greatness

Disappointments

Experience
Contentment
Death
Communion with God, what it is

The disposal of Providence always best

Love in its fourfold extension
Slander
Fear and other passions
Universal improvement

The soul's enlargement on high

Affliction the lot of saints below
Private experience
All plenitude in Christ, to answer
all the needs of his people
Prayer and praise

On a blind beggar

Love in saints
Love in God
Death
The death of the wicked

The Traveller

Grace in the blush, sin not ashamed
Going to a fair
After sickness
Frames of soul variable

The unconcerned spectators

Death a blessing to godly men
Mercy going before God, makes meeting him a mercy
The necessity of afflictions
Saints unknown, stars unseen

The excellent happiness of the blessed

Only a rumour heard of the triumphant state
Science
A wicked thing to depart from God in the least
Who the great man is

We should sleep no longer than to refresh the body

Our only joy in the world to come
On the scriptures
True joy
One fruit of affliction

From the depth of afflictions we see stupendous things

Prayer
Little known of the bliss above
The divine lover
Eternity

On loving God

Wrath
Sensible communion with God sometimes enjoyed
Brevity of life
On the last day of the year

Saints have the greatest reason to rejoice

Indwelling sin
Events of providence
More of God seen in Christ than in all the creation
Christ, the study above

The world asleep

Still ignorant of God below
Nothing can purchase Christ from the soul
Torment
The soul's growth

This life a valley of tears

The madness of the world in their choice
The approaching happiness of the saints
What we should expect and wait for
The spiritual miser

Contradictions

he confusion of the wicked at the general judgment
Mercies abused
The forgiveness of injuries
The excellency of religion

Christ, and none but he, satisfies desires

The aggrandizing visit
Causes of humility
Harmony in God's procedure with the church
A pleasant consideration

Crucifixion

All God's ways equal
Self-flatterers
The heavenly vision assimilating
Still descriptions fall short of glory

Saints honourable

Mercies, though apparently delayed,
come at the appointed time
The world deeply rooted in the affections
True riches
The casting of the scales or balances

Affliction the common lot of the saints

The glorious fruits of sanctified affliction
God his people's inheritance
Distance diminishes views
Jubilee

God's knowledge

A glance into heavenly bliss
Elijah and Elisha, a dialogue
The company of the wicked corrupts
To escape wrath should silence under all afflictions

Adoption

Connections
Degrees of nearness to God
Unbelief
Our short life should not give much concern

Faith

The three-fold state
Corruption
Grace
Love and immortality

Extremities

The astonishing portions
Noah's ark
Acquaintances
An argument

On being ill-used

The Bible a store-house of instruction
Assurance
Our meditations cramped,
unless stretched beyond death
How to be rich in heaven

Revenge rejected

The coming judgment
Against murmuring at misfortunes
A caution against excess
of joy in any earthly good
The joy of salvation

On visits

The anguish of damnation
Sovereignty
The victory of faith
The necessity of afflictions while we live

Gibeon making peace with Israel

On the author's first using glasses
On casting our care on God
The affection of a parent
On being made a noble

The singular advantages of poverty

A journey along the sea-shore
The British state lottery
On the works of creation
A prospect of death
A state after death
