Thought for Wednesday August 23


Lord, in your strength the king is glad.
Great is his glory in your victory;
majesty and splendor you conferred upon him.
You made him a blessing forever,
you gladdened him with the joy of your face.
 Lord, in your strength the king is glad.
 
Matthew 20: 1 – 16  Jesus told his disciples this parable: "The Kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out at dawn to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with them for the usual daily wage, he sent them into his vineyard.
 
How important is work to me – am I one of the ones there at dawn, nine, noon, three or five?  Why do I work – to make money, help others, accomplish something, kill time, etc.?
 
Action:  Work hard when you should, but take time to relax, pray, meditate, spend time with friends, etc.
