This story or analogy Jesus shared tells you there will come “midnight knocks” to the door of your life that will awaken you from your sleep, expose your inability to solve the problem in your own wisdom and resources, and drive you to your knees. Furthermore, His parable shows us that, in the midnight moment when we need God urgently, He doesn’t move on our timetable. In fact, His slowness to act will feel as if He’s resisting us. What do you do then?
