Read Luke 18:1-8 |
|
| Watching a young child attempt to receive a parent's attention is often amusing. If the parent happens to be in conversation with another person, the stakes are even higher than normal. While the adults converse, the child will stand there, calling for their parent. Each time, the child receives the same answer, "Just a minute". This can continue for quite sometime while the parent gets more annoyed and the child gets more demanding. | |
|
Finally, the parent will make their excuses and turn to the child to ask, "What is it? What do you want?" How often do we do this same thing God? We call out to Him repeatedly, desperate for his attention. When He doesn't answer promptly to our summons, we continue to "nag" until God finally, like the parent He is, asks: "What is it? What do you want?" I will be diligent and respectful in my time with God. |
