Consistent with perfect love
It follows that none of these wandering thoughts (whatever unwary persons have affirmed, thereby grieving those whom the Lord had not grieved, Ezekiel 13:22) are inconsistent with perfect love. Indeed if they were, then not only sharp pain but sleep itself would be inconsistent with it: sharp pain, for whenever this supervenes, whatever we were before thinking of, it will interrupt our thinking and of course draw our thoughts into another channel; yea, and sleep itself, as it is a state of insensibility and stupidity, and such as is generally mixed with thoughts wandering over the earth, loose, wild, and incoherent. Yet certainly these are consistent with perfect love; so then are all wandering thoughts of this kind.
