Il-parabbola li smajna fil-Vanġelu tal-lum (Mt 20, 1-16) nistgħu nispjegawha li Kristu kien qed jagħti tagħlima lill-Lhud: mhux billi l-pagani ġew wara, se jieħdu inqas, jew intom għax ġejtu mill-Antik Testment se tieħdu iktar. Alla jħobb lil kulħadd u hu ħanin ma’ kulħadd.

Ħuti, il-Konċilju Vatikan it-tieni kien enfasizza ħafna li l-Madonna hija interċesura tagħna quddiem il-Missier. Imma ma nitsgħux nieqfu hemm. Il-Madonna għalina hija mudell ta’ dawk li jridu jimxu wara Kristu, mudell ta’ dixxiplu. Għalhekk irridu nkunu aktar attenti biex insiru nafu min hi l-Madonna.
