Dear Jesus, thank you for loving me. Help me to share your love with my family and friends so I can grow even closer to you in my heart. Amen.

Peter asks Jesus how many times he should forgive someone. Peter thinks seven times sounds like a lot – but Jesus tells Peter to forgive people 77 times! Then Jesus tells a story about how God forgives us over and over again – and how God the Father wants us to do the same.

My name isJesus tells a story about a man who owns a vineyard, where he grows many grapes. He invites people to work in the vineyard and promises to pay them. The first group of workers agree to work all day but other workers are hired much later and work for a much shorter time. At the end of the day the owner is generous and pays everyone the same.

My name is

Dear Jesus, help me to say “yes” and mean it when people ask for help. Help me to put my words into action. Amen.

Jesus tells the story of a man who had two sons. He asks each son to work in the vineyard for the day. The first son says, “NO, I will not go” but then decides he will go and help. The second son says, “YES, I will go” but then doesn’t. Actions, not words are what matter.
