Matthew 20:1- The kingdom is Hiring

1“For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. (Matthew 20:1)

Thoughts: The kingdom of heaven is like a landowner.  Perhaps it might be better put if Jesus said, "The kingdom of heaven is like a King..."  But the workers work for the kingdom and the King and kingdom cannot be separated.  God elects people to be saved who do not deserve it.  Just as workers do not deserve to be hired.  They are picked.  God picks workers and when He does, that means we are to work for a reason.  The kingdom is made from those the King chooses to do His work.  We are not chosen to do nothing- we are chosen to do kingdom work.  What work is God calling you to do?  

Prayer: Help me to be a worker for you, O Lord.  Let me follow you.
