Matthew 20v8-16

Heavenly father
give us grace today to avoid envy and embrace generosity 

⁸ “When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the labourers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.’ 
⁹ “When those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came, they each received a denarius. 
¹⁰ When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denarius. 
¹¹ When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household, 
¹² saying, ‘These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat!’
¹³ “But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me for a denarius? 
¹⁴ Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you. 
¹⁵ Isn’t it lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?’ 
¹⁶ So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”
