LGOO II Maribeth Tacazon-Miranda reminds us through Matthew 20 “God’s grace is not earned by hours worked, but received with a humble heart.”

In the Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard, we are reminded that His generosity goes beyond human standards of fairness. Whether we come early or late, His love remains the same.

Let’s celebrate grace instead of comparison, gratitude instead of envy, and trust that God gives exactly what we need in His perfect time.
