Twenty Ninth Sunday In Ordinary Time 3
Family Connec5on
Children nag because it works. Parents, like the
judge in the parable, o8en get worn down by the
persistence of their children asking for things large
and small. Nagging is not a posi#ve trait, to be sure.
The confidence and the persistence behind this be-
havior, however, confidence in the goodness of the
giver and the tenacity to stay in the rela#onship, are
traits worth emula#ng in our rela#onship with God.
Read together Luke 18:1-8. Talk about appropriate
ways to make needs and desires known to one an-
other and to God in prayer. Recall that God wants to
answer our prayers. As a family, offer your needs as
prayers of pe##on to God.
First Reading
Exodus 17:8-13
Joshua and the Israelites defeat Amalek with the
help of God and his servant, Moses.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalm 121:1-2,3-4,5-6,7-8
The Lord is the Guardian of Israel.
Second Reading
2 Timothy 3:14—4:2
Paul exhorts Timothy to con#nue to preach the word
Timothy received from his teachers.
Gospel Reading
Luke 18:1-8
Jesus urges his disciples to pray and not lose heart,
for God hears and answers prayers.
Background on the Gospel Reading
This is the first of two parables that Jesus tells in
Luke 18 about prayer. (The second will be read at
Mass next Sunday.) This first parable is a lesson in
persistence in prayer. (Next Sunday's parable will
address aStude in prayer.) While the parable seems
to present prayer as nagging God for what we want,
such a reading misses the point. God is not like the
judge in the parable, worn down by requests and
coerced to respond. The key is found in the descrip-
#on of the judge as corrupt and unjust. Since God
can be neither, we must understand Jesus to be say-
ing that if even an unjust judge responds to the per-
sistence of the widow, how much more so will God
listen to our prayers. God truly wants to hear our
needs and respond generously. It is the final lament
of Jesus that gets to the point of the parable. The
lesson is about the persistence of the one who prays.
God wants us to be like the persistent widow, stay-
ing in rela#onship with God, confident that God
hears and answers prayers. Then Jesus laments,
“Will such faith be found when the Son of Man
comes?” In this lament, Jesus notes how easy it can
be for us to lose heart.
