The Challenge — Day 115
Today’s Scripture: Luke 17:20-18:8

The widow’s continued asking reminds me of my household some days. “Mom, where are my shoes? Mom, can I have some money? Mom, what’s for supper? Mom. Mom! MOM!” Most days I can answer with a smile. Other days my annoyance gets in the way. If I’m not careful my answers are more snappy than I mean for them to be.
This parable makes it clear God does not answer the way I do. He is never annoyed by His children’s questions. He doesn’t snap or get impatient. He will never put us off by saying, “In a MINUTE!” He is just, patient, always on time. I cry out to Him day and night, and He answers. This gives me reason for praise!
