Friday, July 25 In the forenoon I was happy in my mind, though but poorly in body. I had some sweet meditations when engaged in business. In the evening we had a meeting in the vestry. I delivered my thoughts on Prov. ii. 3, 4, 5: If thou criest after knowledge,' &c; but was much contracted in my ideas, and had not freedom of utterance. I have learnt that utterance, as well as knowledge, is the gift of God: 1 Cor. i. 5.
