Be constant in every appointment of God, public and private – of prayer, reading, hearing, holy conference – that you might get nourishment thereby administered to your souls. Get under all the dews and showers of grace for your fruitfulness. Be spiritual as well as frequent in exercising grace under the means of grace. Without this you cannot serve God acceptably (Heb. 12:28) or receive from Him who is the head nourishment to your souls, but by these bands and joints of faith and love (Col. 2:19).

— Bartholomew Ashwood (1622–1680)
