45 Thirteenth of Third Month. We presen- ted our marriage the second time. In the evening I accompanied my beloved friend, with others appointed, to a few familes : in one of which, she directed her testimo- ny to the visitors, in such a manner, as much affected our spirits : she spoke of the pillars of a house, in an outward building, the fewer they were, the greater weight or burden they had to bear : so, in the Lord's house, those who were faithful and upright, must expect to feel weight, an...d the fewer they were in number the great- er weight must they expect to feel : she mentioned the necessity of standing firm ; and had encouragement for such. The seventeenth, being the day of our marriage, many friends and others attend- ed it was a solid, comfortable, and instruc- tive meeting. ' James Gough was concerned to mention these words from the Prophet Isaiah : ' Thy Maker is thy husband :" on which he enlarged in a beautiful and remarkable manner. In the evening we liad a time of retirement, in which some- 46 thing singular occurred : I was engaged to speak of the Apostle's address to the Thessalonians, where he called them, "The the church in God:" it opened to my view, that we were to be that Church by union and communion with Him ; keep- ing under the sanctification of his power and virtue ; that relations in affinity or consanguinity signified little, to that of an immortal kindred, which is between those who are, * The church in God ;" that tri- als and afflictions were the lot and portion of the right-minded, designed to bring us to a nearer union with our God, and make us his church, prepared for him to dwell with, and in.
