Puritan Wisdom

“I remember it was written of Queen Mary, that she said if they ripped her open they would find tea in her heart. And so it may be said of the saints whose conversation is in heaven, who walk with God and live their lives of heaven upon earth, if they were ripped open, you would find heaven in their hearts.” – Jeremiah Burroughs, A Heavenly Conversation bound with A Treatise of Earthly-Mindedness, 98.
