A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

Performing holy duties

With respect unto duties, which are more directly to be performed unto God, such as the Word, prayer, praise, thanksgiving, sacraments, surely these must be attended upon, because they are acts of love to God and trust in God; and these holy duties are the ways of God, wherein he hath promised to meet with his people, and hath appointed us to expect his grace, and therefore they must not be neglected by us. Serve him in these things: ‘With what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you’ (Mark 4:24) It is a rule of commerce [fellowship] between us and God. [Thomas Manton--Temptation of Christ]
