We do not doubt that there is another lesson to be learned from the parable of the laborers in the vineyard, because of the last sentence: “So the last shall be first, and the first last; for many be called, but few chosen.” God is the dispenser of grace, and He dispenses it as and when and where it pleases Him. The Jews were first; now they are last. Paul was as one born out of due time, and yet he became a chief apostle. God will not be unjust to any, but He calls whom He will, and of them He chooses whom He will, and He makes them, in His grace, what He will. Let each be content to fill the place in which God has put him. Let each count it all grace to be sent by God to work in His vineyard, and then seek to be faithful therein. While enjoying the grace thus given to him, let him be happy in recognizing the grace given to others whom God may please to choose and endow with greater gifts than he possesses. Let not our eye be evil because God is good.
