Praying throught saints

[Nelka]

Saints can’t be everywhere like God is so what happens when two people pray through the same saint at the same time?

Thanks.

Saints in Heaven have passed from chronos time to kairos time. To them, as to God, everything is in the present. There is no past and no future.

I would extrapolate that they would deal with the constant influx of prayer in the same way that God does, given that they are interceding to Him on our behalf.

Now the details are beyond me.

saints no longer have human bodies…they are in heaven and are able to pray for anybody and everybody they want…they could pray for the whole world if they choose…

‘Beside all this, a more wonderful grace is bestowed upon the Saints in heaven: for they know not only them with whom they were acquainted in this world, but also those whom before they never saw, and converse with them in such familiar sort as though in times past they had seen and known one another: and therefore when they shall see the ancient fathers in that place of perpetual bliss, they shall then know them by sight, whom always they knew in their lives and conversation. For seeing they do in that place with unspeakable brightness, common to all, behold God, what is there that they know not, that know him who knoweth all things?’

Pope St. Gregory the Great
