The Persistent Child

Jesus told them a parable, to show them that they should pray continually, and not lose heart.  He said, "In a certain town there was a judge, who neither feared God nor people.  In the same town there was a widow, who kept coming to him, saying, 'Defend my rights against my opponent!'  For a time he refuse, but finally he thought, 'Even though I neither fear God nor care about people, this widow bothers me so much, I will see that she gets justice;  then she will stop coming and wearing me out.'"

And Jesus said, "Listen to what the evil judge says.  Will God not do justice for his chosen ones, who cry to him day and night, even if he delays in answering them?  I tell you, he will speedily do them justice.  But, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"

Luke 18:1-8

"Abba Father, teach me trust in You with all my heart, that I may not lean on my own understanding."
