Prayer and humble entreaty graces us with Wisdom

“And so I prayed, and understanding was given me; I entreated, and the spirit of Wisdom came to me.” Wisdom 7:7-8

Prayer gives us the grace to understand mysteries which are unfathomable for the human mind. Prayer starts as an encounter with the living God, but as the days go by, this relationship with Him deepens, until finally prayer becomes like a flowing spring, filling the soul with Heavenly consolation. Humble entreaty, made on bended knee, obtains for us the Divine Favour and condescension, and above all bestows on us the great grace to be visited by Lady Wisdom.
