The Lord has given us many counsels and commandments to help us toward salvation…He has also taught us how to pray. He has made it easy for us to be heard, as we pray to the Father in words taught us by the Son… Let us pray as God our Master has taught us. To ask the Father in words His Son has given us, to let Him hear the words of Christ ringing in His ears, is to make our prayer one of friendship, a family prayer. – St. Cyprian, martyred Bishop of Carthage (+258) #copticorthodox #prayer #askandyoushallreceive
