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

Jane Lead preaches about the importance of maintaining purity and
avoiding worldly distractions while waiting for God's guidance. She
emphasizes the need to keep the mind and soul refined to allow God's
presence to be revealed within us, like a floating sea for light and
discovery. By drawing near to God with a pure mind, we can experience a
deeper connection and understanding of His nature, allowing us to know
Him as we are known.

As I was waiting, I met with this Word from my Lord and God, Who ceaseth
not to give Counsel unto us, to avoid the Snares, that every way do lie,
while we are waiting in this Corrupt Air. The Word thus spake. O great
Soul, and Mind, beware of Worldly soil: keep the inward part all
refined; that God may open there his great Name, and be uppermost in his
own Nature, as a floating Sea, for Light and Discovery. In which ye may
know, as yea are known: for which draw nigh to That, which is ready to
meet you in the Mind of Purity.
