“For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the workers on one denarius, he sent them into his vineyard for the day. When he went out about nine in the morning, he saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. He said to them, ‘You also go into my vineyard, and I’ll give you whatever is right.’ So off they went. About noon and about three, he went out again and did the same thing. Then about five he went and found others standing around and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day doing nothing? ’ “ ‘Because no one hired us,’ they said to him. “ ‘You also go into my vineyard,’ he told them. When evening came, the owner of the vineyard told his foreman, ‘Call the workers and give them their pay, starting with the last and ending with the first.’ “When those who were hired about five came, they each received one denarius. So when the first ones came, they assumed they would get more, but they also received a denarius each.

The reflections in The Message Devotional Bible let the wisdom of the Scriptures settle more fully into your spirit. In this devotional, we'll get a taste of Eugene Peterson's insights on Scriptures from Genesis through Jesus's parables and the epistles of John. As Peterson writes, "It's my privilege to walk with you through the Scriptures. I come as a guide and fellow traveler. Traveling mercies for us both."
We offer a collection of parables as spoken by Jesus and recorded in the Gospels in this reading plan series. Part 1 collection is all about the righteousness of our acts.
