DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jane Lead emphasizes the importance of guarding and nurturing the inner
wellspring of life within us, warning that external influences like
stones or earth can block this source, leading to spiritual dryness. She
encourages believers to diligently protect this wellspring from anything
that could hinder its flow, as it is a coveted prize by opposing
spirits. Like Isaac, we are urged not to yield to these hindrances but
press on until we reach Rehoboth, the place of abundant fruitfulness.

Be choice and tender to your deep springing Well, that is within your
own Ground, if either Stones or Earth do fall thereinto, you will know
its springs will fail, and then your Spirits will be in drouth.
Therefore watch to keep all clods of Earth out, that would stop your
Bubling Well of Life. Which the Philistine Spirits are in strife for,
but Isaac's Spirit will not give way to them, till he comes to Rehoboth
the Land of fruitfulness.
