DAILY MENTATION How do I act or react when someone receives or earns more money than me?		DAILY QUOTE "Envy is a symptom of lack of appreciation of our own uniqueness and self worth. Each of us has something to give that no one else has." Anonymous~		DAILY AFFIRMATION I AM provided in all of the wonderful and positive beneficial ways that Life has to offer.
DAILY PRAYER For a more enriching experience, go down on your knees to pray or take it one step further and prostrate yourself (lay face down) on the floor while praying. Heavenly Father, it is symptomatic of our life today that economics play a large part in it. People labor zealously for a wage so that they can acquire the needs of life. They also work for the so-called luxuries of life, for the opportunity to have more leisure to develop themselves in ways, and to keep up with their particular state of life. Right now, I find myself in a bad economic condition. I just cannot seem to make enough money to meet my obligations. Please help me in this dangerous situation. Teach me to live within my means while at the same time striving to increase those means. Let me never lose heart but continue to press on. Most of all, inspire me to seek first Your kingdom in the knowledge that everything else will be given me together with it. In Jesus Christ's name I pray, who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Spirit One God forever and ever. Amen~
DAILY SCRIPTURE A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew Matthew 20:1-16 [Jesus said to them . . . ] 1 "The kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out at dawn to hire laborers for his vineyard. 2 After agreeing with them for the usual daily wage, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 Going out about nine o'clock, he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, 4 and he said to them, 'You too go into my vineyard, and I will give you what is just.' 5 So they went off. (And) he went out again around noon, and around three o'clock, and did likewise. 6 Going out about five o'clock, he found others standing around, and said to them, 'Why do you stand here idle all day?' 7 They answered, 'Because no one has hired us.' He said to them, 'You too go into my vineyard.' 8 When it was evening the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, 'Summon the laborers and give them their pay, beginning with the last and ending with the first.' 9 When those who had started about five o'clock came, each received the usual daily wage. 10 So when the first came, they thought that they would receive more, but each of them also got the usual wage. 11 And on receiving it they grumbled against the landowner, 12 saying, 'These last ones worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who bore the day's burden and the heat.' 13 He said to one of them in reply, 'My friend, I am not cheating you. Did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? 14 Take what is yours and go. What if I wish to give this last one the same as you? 15 (Or) am I not free to do as I wish with my own money? Are you envious because I am generous?' 16 Thus, the last will be first, and the first will be last."
