The Labourers in the Vineyard
Matthew 20:1-16
For the kingdom of heaven is like to a man that is an householder…


May we not then draw from this parable the lesson, that God takes into account not only the work we do, but also our opportunities. He does not allow us to be discredited with Him for not doing what we could not do, if only we show the disposition to do it.

(A M. Ludlow, D. D.)
