Heavenly Zeal
Galatians 4:18
But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.


Our zeal, if it be heavenly, if it be true vestal fire kindled from above, will not delight to tarry here below, burning up straw and stubble and such combustible things, and sending up nothing but gross earthly flames to heaven; but it will rise up and return back pure as it came down, and will be ever striving to carry up men's hearts to God along with it.

(Cudworth.)
