How different are the Lord's ways from our own (1)! Gracious and good to all (Ps), the Lord is equally generous in compassion and love to both those who are quick to respond to his invitation, as well as those who are slow to hear his call (3). May the Lord Jesus always be our life (2). Is 55:6-9; Ps 145:2-3, 8-9, 17-18; Phil 1:20c-24, 27a; Mt 20:1-16a
