Sanctifying Grace and Spiritual Duties

[James Hosie]

Sanctifying grace, renewing grace, puts the soul upon spiritual duties, from spiritual and intrinsical motives, as from the sense of divine love, that doth constrain the soul to wait on God, and to act for God; and the sense of the excellency and sweetness of communion with God, and the choice and precious discoveries that the soul hath formerly had of the beauty and glory of God, whilst it hath been in the service of God.

Loved that book. I just finished Edwards' book on Religious Affections, which would be a great follow up to Brooks' work (if interested) as it follows suit.
