Book Description
It must be confident: “Let us, therefore, go with confidence to the throne of grace.” It must not be wanting in faith, as it is said: “But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.” That this is a most trustworthy prayer is reasonable, since it was formed by Him who is our Advocate and the most wise Petitioner for us: “In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge;” and of whom it is said: “For we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the just one.” Hence, St. Cyprian says: “Since we have Christ as our Advocate with the Father for our sins, when we pray on account of our faults, we use the very words of our Advocate.” Aeterna Press
