We were talking about fairness and the Kingdom of Heaven last week and here we have our old friend Ezekial speaking for the lord on exactly the same subject. The House of Israel is complaining , just like the workers in the vineyard, that God's ways are unfair. We are also given more information about the ways of the world being different to 'spirit -led thinking' and, as if in answer to the calls for 'fair play', we are given a get out clause by Jesus. He explains how we can always be given a clean slate if we change our minds after finding ourselves impulsively on the wrong path. Some really 'good news' today then.

ISAIAH. 55; 6-9.   RICH IN FORGIVENESS

PHILIPPIANS 1: 20-24,27    LIFE TO ME IS CHRIST

MATTHEW  20: 1-16
 The idea is that when looking for mercy, don't be sidetracked into thinking you can bargain, or have to do something special first, or that it is too late anyway, “ for he will abundantly pardon”, says Isaiah, so call upon the Lord, shout out and turn around and face the Lord who will always forgive. Isaiah is advocating 'Spirit  - led thinking' when it comes to the Lord because these are “ not your thoughts...not your ways”. The abundant mercy and goodness freely administered by the Lord is not open to what we do,  or what the world might see as fair play. The same mercy is give to anyone who asks, whenever they ask.
