is the grace of conversion, and
sometimes do not think it to be so till a long time after. Many, even
when they come to entertain great hopes that they are converted, if they
remember what they experienced in the first exercises of grace, they are
at a loss whether it was any more than a common illumination; or whether
some other more clear and remarkable experience which they had
afterwards, was not the first of a saving nature. The manner of God's
work on the soul, sometimes especially, is very mysterious; and it is
with the kingdom of God as to its manifestation in the heart of a
convert, as is said, Mark iv. 26, 27,28, "So is the kingdom of God, as
if a man should cast seed into the ground, and should sleep, and rise
night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not
how; for the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself, first the blade,
then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear."

In some, converting light is like a glorious brightness suddenly shining
upon a person, and all around him: they are in a remarkable manner
brought out of darkness into marvelous light. In many others it has been
like the dawning of the day, when at first but a little light appears,
and it may be presently hid with a cloud; and then it appears again, and
shines a little brighter, and gradually increases, with intervening
darkness, till at length it breaks forth more clearly from behind the
clouds. And many are, doubtless, ready to date their conversion wrong,
throwing by those lesser degrees of light that appeared at first
dawning, and calling some more remarkable experience they had
afterwards, their conversion. This often, in a great measure, arises
from a wrong understanding of what they have always been taught, that
conversion is a great change, wherein old things are done away, and all
things become new, or at least from a false infer
