There is enough “bad news” at times to tempt and CHOOSE to succumb to throwing in the towel and quit praying.

For the disciples they had been told He was leaving, would be handed over and be crucified. One of them was a traitor. They had also been told by Him  that He would rise again but in the turmoil they had forgot to remember! We too often forget to remember what He has said during the difficult times and then to look at the problem or potential problems rather than Him and His promises. We often allow the difficulties to overshadow, and it affects our thinking, and as a result our praying! We forget to Remember what He has said!

Jesus in the passage gives us a future hope, that many of us fail to think of why we should pray and continue, namely, one motivation not to lose heart in prayer… ? Verse 3, 18 – Jesus is coming again!

His return should motivate us to persist in praying. Do you ever find yourself THINKING MUCH on and motivated by His return as a means to keep praying? Few perhaps do.
