    Chapter I .—The Discovery of Truth is Difficult, But God Has Promised that He Who Seeks Shall Find.

    1. My heart, O Lord, affected by the words of Thy Holy Scripture, is much busied in this poverty of my life; and therefore, for the most part, is the want of human intelligence copious in language, because inquiry speaks more than discovery, and because demanding is longer than obtaining, and the hand that knocks is more active than the hand that receives. We hold the promise; who shall break it? “If God be for us, who can be against us?”1070

    1070 Rom. viii. 31.

    “Ask, and ye shall have; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”1071

    1071 Matt. vii. 7, 8.

    These are Thine own promises; and who need fear to be deceived where the Truth promiseth?
