“When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?” Luke 18:1-8
Today’s Gospel reveals to us the importance of faith and prayer, of trusting fully in God, who is just and compassionate, listens to us and responds with his infinite love and mercy to our needs. And when it seems to us at any time that his response seems to be delayed, Jesus calls us to persevere in prayer, not to give up, but to remain firm in faith in the midst of waiting. Even in the face of the judge’s attitude, Jesus reminds us that, even in a world where justice seems absent or late, we must not lose hope, but trust in divine justice. Let us feel in every situation, called to maintain the courage to persist, not only in prayer, but also in our actions and in our commitment to others.
