We know that God hears us if we ask according to His will. But to press our petitions without a submissive spirit is not right; our prayers must take the form, not of command, but of intercession. {FLB 315.6}

Vi ved at Gud hører os, hvis vi beder efter Hans vilje. Men presser vi vore bønner frem uden en underdanig ånd er ikke rigtigt; vore bønner må ikke have form af en befaling, men af en mellemkomst.
