Can there be a ques- tion, then, of the necessity of self-examination, that we may ascertain whether we have declined from the ways of God, and have turned aside to other paths ? If this be our case, it becomes us to balance the pleasures and pursuits of this life with the favour of heaven, and ask whether the former are deliberately to be preferred ? In a season of affliction, we shall assuredly answer in the negative ; and thus shall we learn the relative value of present and eternal consider...ations ; we ON SELF-EXAMINATION. 87 shall discover our own unhappy choice ; we shall repent, remember whence we are fallen, and, in the strength of divine grace, we shall do " the first works. " But, again, are our attachments fixed on things above, or upon things on the earth ? Man is a rational being ; but he is so situated in this world, that the great basis of his happi- ness is made to consist in the exercise of the social affections. The Almighty has bene- ficently implanted in his breast a desire to promote the happiness of those who are dear to him, and has imparted to this principle such a degree of influence over his conduct, that it gives a peculiar character to his actions.
