DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 9; Psalms 109-110; Mark 1:21-45
Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine
eye evil, because I am good? Matt hew 20:15
“Are you envious because I am gracious?” This question arose because
the Lord had just spoken a parable where the employer in the
story gave the same wages to those who worked for just one hour as
he gave to those who worked for 12 hours. Human logic says, “They
have every right to complain; it’s not fair!” But those who worked all
day had previously agreed to their wages! So they really had no complaint
if the employer showed grace to the others. Grace does not pay
wages, it is a gift . How thankful we should be. —Drew Craig
To God be the glory, to God be the glory, for the things He has done,
With His blood He has saved me, with His power He has raised me,
To God be the glory for the things He has done.—Fanny Crosby
