“Duties are excellent food for an unhealthy
soul; they are no physic for a sick soul.
He that turns his meat into his medicine must expect no great
operation. Spiritually sick men cannot
sweat out their distemper with working.” -- John Owen, Of the Mortification of Sin in Believers, 18, in The Works of John Owen, Volume 6: Temptation and Sin.
