Proverbs 11:24-25 -- On the Lord's Accounting

"There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself."
Proverbs 11:24-25


I like the idea of this... scattering and increase, being liberal to others and yet gaining from it. Contrary to everything we know about the way money works, and yet still true. As we do the Lord's will and are generous to others, our own needs will be met.

Today, let's remember that God does things differently, and be willing to invest in doing good, even if it seems like a bad deal up front.
