Mark 2:25-26 And he said to them, Have you never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungered, he, and they that were with him?… In prayer there is such a thing as praying in prayer — a praying which is the bowels of the prayer. In praise there is a praising in song, an reward fire of intense devotion, which is the life of the hallelujah. It is even so with the reading of the Scriptures. There is an interior reading, a kernel reading; and, if it be not there, the reading is a mechanical exercise, and profits nothing. (C. H. Spurgeon.)
