Unlike most parables, this time the Gospel writer leads off telling us what
the story is all about. By having us
assume the role of the widow and God the role of the judge we are told of the
need to be persistent
with our prayer to God. So safe to say,
the vast majority of churchgoers this weekend are hearing a homily about the
need to pray always. And while prayer is important to us, that is not the
homily you will be hearing today.
Because there is more.
And to see what is hidden under the surface of this parable, it requires
you to turn the story upside down. Only then will you find the second
meaning that may just have you rethinking your life.
