Story:
There was a King that had two slaves. The King told the slaves that he would paid them a years wage if they would take the all the water out of his well and dump into a wicker basket.
The slaves agreed to do the work. The first slave took a bucket and
filled it with water and dumped it into the wicker basket. He did this two or three times and relized that he was not accomplishing anything so he told the
other slave ” This is foolishness, we are not accomplishing anything, I am
leaving!”
The other slave tried to reason with the first slave saying
“The Master already paid us our wage, we have to do this!!!”
The first slave left anyway. The other slave picked up the bucket and continued the work until the well was dry. When he finished he looked into the basket and saw a basket full of diamonds. They were transparent to the eyes
while in the water.
When the master returned he praised the faithful slave and gave him the basket of diamonds in addition to the wages he already had recieved.
In God’s organization some times we do not always realize what we
are doing or why we might be doing something but God never asks us to do anything that will harm us, and if we are a faithful servant of God’s, He will reward us with a treasure beyond imagination.

Scripture:
Matthew 20:1-16
For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way. Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise. And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive. So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first. And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny. And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house, Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day. But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny? Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.
Humor:
My great-aunt looked confused when I told her that my daughter was 18 months old. “Oh,” she said. “I thought she was a year and a half.”
“But Aunt Marie,” I said, “18 months and a year and a half are the same.”
She shrugged. “What do I know? I never had kids.”
