If you want God to hear your prayers, hear the voice of the poor.

Monday of the Thirty-third Week in Ordinary Time

If you want God to hear your prayers, hear the voice of the poor. If you wish God to anticipate your wants, provide [for] those of the needy without waiting for them to ask you. Especially anticipate the needs of those who are ashamed to beg. To make them ask for alms is to make them buy it.

— St. Thomas of Villanova, OSA
