Proverbs 3:12

For whom the LORD loves he corrects; even as a father the son in whom he delights.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 3:12 Go To Proverbs 3

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
What clearer evidence is there for pointing to God’s grace than in the case where we receive what we ask for in prayer? For if our Lord had said, “Watch that you enter not into temptation,” he would appear to have merely given an admonition to man’s will, whereas when he added the words “and pray,” he made it clear that it is God who helps us so that we do not fall into temptation. It is to human free will that these words have been directed: “Son, do not fall away from the correction of the Lord.”
