And He said to them, “Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; and he will answer from within and say, ‘Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give to you’? I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs. “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish?

As parents, we want to get it right and become the best version of ourselves for our children. But the struggle is real, and we often feel like we’re falling short. In this four-day devotional, we’ll look at some spiritual disciplines that can help us bridge the gap between the parent we are and the parent God created us to be.
In this parable, Jesus teaches us that we should keep asking, searching, and knocking when we pray. He wants us to understand that if we're persistent in our prayers, just like the friend eventually helped, God will also respond to our persistent requests when we seek Him. Read and be blessed.
Prayer is simply how we communicate and commune with God. The practice of prayer is learning to set aside dedicated time to intentionally be with God in order to become like him and partner with him in the world. This plan, by Practicing the Way and John Mark Comer, helps us do just that, featuring key ideas and practical suggestions for us to connect with God in a deeper way.
