Introduction

Today’s reading includes a parable about workers in a vineyard who are hired at different times during the day but receive the same wage. Jesus uses this parable to teach about the Kingdom of heaven.

Scripture Reading

Matthew 20:1-16

Today’s Key Verse: Matthew 20:16

Jesus concluded, “So those who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last.”

Reflect

In the parable of the workers in the vineyard, the last ones hired receive the same wage as those who were hired first. What is your reaction to this? Do you agree that the landowner was generous as he said (verse 15)? Why or why not? In what way does this parable provide insight into the Kingdom of Heaven?

Pray

Almighty God, your ways are not our ways. Teach us what it means to be part of your Kingdom. Your ways are transformative and good. May my words and actions this day reflect your generous and extravagant love and care for all people. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Matthew 22:1-14: Jesus uses a parable about a wedding feast to teach about the Kingdom of Heaven.
