LETTER MCCI.
T o Mr. R―― K――n.
Bristol, May 26, 1758.
My very dear Mr. K――n, REPEATED acts of kindness and love, call for repeated acknowledgments.—Accept therefore hearty thanks for your last Salt-Hill favour, and assure yourself, that neither this nor any former labour of love, will be forgotten by Him, who takes notice of a cup of cold water given in the name of a disciple. Through his divine goodness I got safe into Gloucestershire, where I opened the summer campaign last Sunday. Ever since Tuesday evening, I have been preaching here twice daily. Multitudes fly like doves to the windows. Abiding impressions seem to be made.—This is the Lord's doing: to Him be all the glory! On next Monday, God willing,
I set out for Wales. I know you will follow me with your prayers. I am sure mine always attend you and yours: I love such old steady friends. It is
Christ-like, not to be given to change.—Blessed be God for an unchangeable Jesus!
To feel his power, to hear his voice, To taste his love, be all our choice!
I must away to my throne.—Adieu! The Lord be with you and yours! My hearty love to Mr. J――, and all who are so kind as to enquire after, my very dear Mr. K――n, Yours, &c. in our common Lord, G. W.
