Julian of Norwich: Long Text: Edmund Colledge, O.S,A. and James Walsh, S.J.: 42nd Chapter

Mystical Experience of Julian of Norwich | IMERE.org

For this is our Lord's will, that our prayer and our trust be both equally generous. For if we do not trust as much as we pray, we do not pay full honor to our Lord in our prayer, and also we impede and hurt ourselves; and the reason is, as I believe, because we do not truly know that our Lord is the ground from which our prayer springs, and also because we do not know that it is given to us by grace from his love. For if we knew this, it would make us trust to have all we desire from our Lord's gift.
