If God at
times seems to be slow in responding, it is because He is preparing a better
gift. He will not deny us. We well know that the long-awaited gift is
all the more precious for the delay in its being granted… Ask, seek,
insist. Through this asking and seeking
you will be better prepared to receive God’s gift when it comes. God withholds what you are not yet ready
for. He wants you to have a lively
desire for His greatest gifts. All of which
is to say, pray always and do not lose heart.
(St. Augustine ,
Catena Aurea)
