Then a person does not think at all about himself and his needs, but his whole spiritual gaze is directed towards God. Prayer must always end in surrendering to the will of God. Often we are mistaken in choosing what is harmful and useful for us and ask God for what is harmful for us and not for the other. Therefore, we sometimes do not receive from God what we ask. But this does not mean that God does not hear us. God hears us and will give us something else, more useful, instead of what we prayed for. Having received this, we are filled with peace of mind and feel in the heart that this is the answer to our request. ... “And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily.” (Luke 18:7-8).
