Closing Thought- This parable is a parable of contrast. A widow without standing, an advocate, or any promise of the judge hearing her demand and granting it. She is approaching an unrighteous judge, who has no fear of God nor care for her. A judge who can be argued with and made to act for selfish reasons. Compared to us Beloved. God's children going before a Judge Who hears us, loves us, and will vindicate us for certain. Because we believe this, we will always pray and not lose heart. Come Lord Jesus-
