II. Abba – “Father!”
[The prayer is accomplished]
by the contemplation of God alone, and by the warmth of love, through which the
soul, molded and directed to love him, speaks very familiarly to God as to its
own Father with special devotion.43
Our Father: at this name love is aroused in us . . . and the confidence of
obtaining what we are about to ask…. What would he not give to his children
who ask, since he has already granted them the gift of being his
children?44
