Scripture – Matthew 20:10-12

10 Now when the first came, they thought they would receive more; but each of them also received a denarius. 11 And when they received it, they grumbled against the landowner, 12 saying, ‘These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.’

Prayer Focus: When the first came, those who had labored all day, they thought that they would receive more. But they also receive a denarius, the daily wage. So they grumbled against the landowner. The root of their complaint is “you have made them equal to us” and we worked longer in the heat so “we deserve more.” I wonder how many of the issues and divisions we face in our country today can be traced to these same two complaints. On this day of remembrance and celebration, pray that all might be truly equal and that our divisions might not fester.
