Meaning of the phrase "accept any request"
Hello,
I am looking at the phrase "accept any request" that is found at the very end of the following paragraph:
"Jesus mentioned to St. faustina that "During the hour of mercy, I [Jesus] will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of me in virtue of my passion". This promise of Jesus is telling us that a prayer during the hour of mercy, submitted by a pious and devout sharer of the passion of Christ, will be heard by Jesus and that Jesus will surely accept (not refuse) any request that such a prayer contains."
In this context, does the phrase "accept any request" mean that "agreeing to grant any request"?
thank you,

Dominique1313 In this context, does the phrase "accept any request" mean that "agreeing to grant any request"? I presume so, since Jesus was such a nice guy. But in real life, it would just mean 'listen to any request'.
