Lip-Devotion
Matthew 26:40-45
And he comes to the disciples, and finds them asleep, and said to Peter, What, could you not watch with me one hour?…


Lip-devotion will not serve the turn. It undervalues the very things it prays for. It is indeed the begging of a denial, and shall certainly be answered in what it begs.

(R. South, D. D.)
