I think it is not very difficult to discern, by the duties and [conversations] of Christians, what frames their spirits are under; take a Christian in a good frame, and how serious, heavenly, and profitable, will his [conversations] and duties be! What a lovely companion is he during the continuance of it! It would do any one’s heart good to be with him at such a time. (John Flavel, from Saint Indeed, emphasis mine)
This caused me to ask a very searching question of my own life and heart, “Does it do people’s hearts good to have spent time with me?”
