But one of these two shall we trust to have through prayer ; either, that we pray for, or that which is better for us. The fifth, what hinders our prayer from being heard by God ? Six things : the first is the sin of him who prays ; as God says through the prophet, " when ye make many prayers, I will not hear ; because your hands are full of blood. " And David : " If I have looked upon iniquity with my heart, the Lord will not hear. " And the prophet ; " Our sins have hid His face from us. " An...d the Gospel : " Because we know God does not no ®ur Datl^ Mork. hear Sinners. " The second is the unworthi- ness of that for which men pray, and that God, through the prophet, forbids them to pray for : " Pray not for this people, neither lift up (praise) nor prayer for them ; for I will not hear. " It tells in the life of the holy Fathers that one who was bound in sin came to the holy Abbot, S. Anthony, and said, " holy Father, have mercy on me and pray for me : " to whom the holy Abbot said ; " I will have no mercy on thee, unless thou helpest thyself and leavest thy sin.
