So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 'These who were hired last worked only one hour,' they said, 'and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.' "But he answered one of them, 'I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn't you agree to work for a denarius? Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?' "So the last will be first, and the first will be last." (Matthew 20:10-16 NIV)
This morning the hearts at the Wessel home are tender. Upon 2 funerals this weekend and off of a crazy , emotional week - we sense Him all around us.
Daddy shared that IT Is fair that a friend like Mike(fish) can call on Jesus and be saved on his dying bed and that those that have called on his name already can live an abundant life while we still live here on earth. God is right, just and fair. It is right that his Dad , Claire called on Jesus and even stated "how can this be after I've lived my whole life for myself?" and once again we say God is right, just and fair! He loves us and we can feel him all around!!
