2. For our prayer to appear to be unheard is no new trial. Jesus felt it
before us. He still held fast on God, and cried still, “My God,” but his faith did not render him less importunate. Our Lord continued
to pray even though no comfortable answer came, and in this he set us an
example of obedience to the words, “men ought
always to pray, and not to faint.” No
daylight is too glaring and no midnight too dark to pray in; no delay or
apparent denial, however grievous, should tempt us to forbear from importunate
pleading.
