ones,
who
believe
yourselves
incapable
of
prayer;
it
is
you
who
are
the
most
fitted
for
it.
Come
all
without
exception
;
Jesus
Christ
calls
you
all.
Let
those
only
refuse
to
come
who
have
no
heart.
The
invitation
is
not
for
them
;
for
we
must
have
a
heart
in
order
to
love.
But
who
is
indeed
without
heart
?
Oh,
come
and
give
that
heart
to
God,
and
learn
in
the
place
of
prayer
how
to
do
it
!
All
those
who
long
for
prayer
are
capable
of
it,
who
have
ordinary
grace
and
the
gift
of
the
Holy
Spirit,
which
is
freely
promised
to
all
who
ask
it.
Prayer
is
the
key
of
perfection
and
of
sovereign
happiness
;
it
is
the
efficacious
means
of
getting
rid
of
all
vices
and
of
acquiring
all
virtues
;
for
the
way
to
become
perfect
is
to
live
in
the
presence
of
God.
He
tells
us
this
Himself:
'*Walk
before
me,
and
be
thou
perfect"
(Gen.
xvii.
i).
Prayer
alone
can
bring
you
into
His
presence,
and
keep
you
there
contin-ually.
What
we
need,
then,
is
an
attitude
of
prayer,
in
which
we
can
constantly
abide,
and
out
of
which
ex-terior
occupations
cannot
draw
us
;
a
prayer
which
