The coin we are given
our time in the fields
more than we could earn
paid by his sacrifice
already assured
when we accept the owner’s offer
work until our time is done
a coin to enter heaven.

Matthew 20:1-16
sermon, "Grumbling about Grace"
by Rev. Frank Gulinello
“Jesus’ parable of the laborers in the vineyard is about
a gracious God whose grace is extraordinarily and
excessively extravagant. Sometimes the
amazing grace of God causes us to grumble because
it seems to be unjust and not fair in our view of the way life should be.”
