NARRATOR.
Now it occurred in the course of their journey that he entered a village where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home.
Her sister Mary, sat at Jesus' feet and listened to his words while Martha was busy serving. Martha however, preoccupied with all the
serving, came to Jesus and said:
MARTHA.
Lord, don't you care that my sister isn't helping me and has left all the serving to me? Please tell her to help me.
JESUS.
Martha, Martha, you're anxious and troubled about so many things. Only one thing is needed and Mary has picked the good part and
this won't be taken away from her.
Luke 10:38-42

Persistence In Prayer
Home | Table of Contents | Index | Chronological Listing
NARRATOR.
Now it happened that Jesus was in a certain place praying. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him:
DISCIPLE.
Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.
JESUS.
When you pray, say, Our Father, who is in Heaven, may your name be held holy. Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as
in Heaven. Give us day by day our daily bread and forgive us our sins, as we forgive all those who are indebted to us. Do not put us to
the test, but deliver us from evil.
Suppose one of you has a friend and you go to him at midnight and say to him, 'My friend, lend me three loaves. A friend of mine,
who's on the road, unexpectedly dropped in on me and I don't have anything to offer him.' The man in the house will then answer and
say, 'Don't bother me, my door's closed and my children are in bed with me. I can't get up to give it to you.' I tell you, if he doesn't get
up and give it to him because he's his friend, persistence will be enough to make him get out of bed and give his friend as many as he
needs.
So I say to you, ask and it will be given you, search and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who
asks, receives; everyone who searches, will find; and everyone who knocks will have the door opened to him. If a son would ask for
bread from any of you who is a father, would you give him a stone? Or if he asked for a fish, would you give him a snake? Or if he
asked for an egg, would you give him a scorpion? If you then, who are evil, know how to give your children what is good, how much
more will your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him.
Luke 11:1-13
