Do not let pass any opportunity to pray for anyone, either at his request
or at the request of his relatives, friends, of those who esteem him, or of his
acquaintances. The Lord looks favorably upon the prayer of our love, and upon
our boldness before him. Besides this, prayer for others is very beneficial to
the one himself who prays for others; it purifies the heart, strengthens faith
and hope in God, and enkindles our love for God and our neighbor. When praying,
say thus: ‘Lord, it is possible for Thee to do this or that to this servant of
Thine; do this for him, for Thy name is the Merciful Love of Men and the
Almighty.’
