Today in my bible reading in the gospel of Luke, I read about the "The Parable of the Persistent Widow." Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. He said:"In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, 'Grant me justice against my adversary.' "For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, 'Even though I don't fear God or care what people think, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually come and attack me!'"
And the Lord said, "Listen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth? (Luke 18:1-8)
This parable reminds me that our Father in Heaven wants to hear from you! He cares for you no matter what you may be going through today! One of Jesus' name is Counselor! He is my counselor! I give him all that weights me down. All the pain I have been through in my life I cast upon my Almighty Counselor! I also praise the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit with all the blessings in my life! Do not forget, it is a relationship that They want from us! Do not go even one day without praying/talking with Them! Remember, you are able to pray wherever you are... even when you are in the bathroom!!!
My hope is that these blogs about prayer are drawing you closer to the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit!
I am His, David Walter Wiseman
