“… when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?” (Luke 18:8b)
These are thought provoking, even disconcerting words from Jesus. They form part of a discourse by Jesus on persistent asking, but asking with an expectation of results. How often we fall short of really trusting Jesus in our lives. I am amazed at how many Christians are absolutely terrified by the Covid-19 pandemic.
