From our human, economic standpoint, paying the same wage to laborers regardless of how long they toiled is illogical.
And this aspect of the story invites us to move beyond our ways of thinking to acknowledge how God regards us.
Though He is just, He is also abundantly merciful, and generously grants us His mercy so that we can live a full life, in Him.
Rather than focusing on what's fair and unfair, let's seek after this God Who is so generous in forgiving. For we are called to receive this gift from Him and share it with others, as we put our faith into action, living in a way worthy of the Gospel, as Christ, Who so mercifully saved us, is now directing the course of our lives.
