That which we are to understand ourselves called to under the name of delighting in God is the keeping of our souls open to divine influences and communications: thirsting after them, praying, and waiting for them; endeavouring to improve them, and co-operate with them, and to stir up ourselves unto such exercises of religion as they lead to; together with applying ourselves to stay and taste, in our progress and course, the sweetness and delightfulness of those communications and operations whereof we have any present experience.
