Parable of the Friend in Need
In this parable, a man goes to his friend's house at midnight to ask for three loaves of bread to feed an unexpected visitor. Initially, the friend refuses to help, citing the inconvenience of being awakened at such a late hour. However, due to the man's persistence and urgency, the friend eventually gets up and gives him what he needs.
How does this parable teach us the power of persistence in prayer and seeking assistance for others?

About this Plan
Jesus was a master storyteller. He knew that the timeless principles He was trying to articulate would be best remembered through storytelling. He often spoke through parables to (1) communicate a more profound truth, (2) make His teachings more accessible to those who were ready to hear them, and (3) confound those who refused to listen. Parables were shaped to convey a single thought, so don't get lost in the details wondering what each part means. Absorb the story and allow Jesus to communicate His truth to your heart.
