Puritan Wisdom

“I shall mention two or three more things. The walk that they walk is above. The way of the saints is on high, it’s a walk above the world. They keep themselves on high, aloft in a spiritual way. It’s true, their hearts are humble before God, and yet they are on high, too. Though they do not look at themselves as worthy of the least crumb of bread, yet they look upon themselves as too good to be servants to the world or to their lusts .– Jeremiah Burroughs, A Heavenly Conversation bound with A Treatise of Earthly-Mindedness, 199.
