Give no quarter

God, when he is invoked, often does not answer at first in order that he who is praying may continue and intensify his prayers and supplications, so that he might receive with even greater thanks the favor that he is asking for, since the desire for it was increased and the asking protracted” (Father Cornelius a Lapide, S.J.). “The more humble a person is, the more receptive and full he becomes. Hills repel water; valleys are filled up” (Saint Augustine).
