Parable of the Persistent Widow, Luke Chapter 18

One day Jesus told His disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up. “There was a judge in a certain city,” He said, “who neither feared God nor cared about people. A widow of that city came to him repeatedly, saying, ‘Give me justice in this dispute with my enemy.’ The judge ignored her for awhile, but finally he said to himself, ‘I don’t fear Good or care abut people, but this woman is driving me crazy. I’m going to see that she gets justice, because she is wearing me out with her constant requests!'”

Then the Lord said, “Learn a lesson from this unjust judge. Even he rendered a just decision in the end. So don’t you think that God will surely give you justice to His chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Will He keep putting them of? I tell you, He will grant justice to them quickly! But when the Son of Man returns, how many will He find on the earth who have faith?” (vv. 1-8, NLT)

We would love to hear from you!
