Often he does not save it for the future. He wastes it. Perhaps he spends it on beer and wine. Perhaps he places bets. Perhaps he takes risks. Sometimes thieves steal the money from him.If a wise person has money, he spends it carefully. He saves the money that he does not need today. He is generous and he helps other people. Money is worth more, when a wise person owns it.Verse 12We do not receive everything immediately. Sometimes, we must wait. This can be difficult. We may not see quick results from our prayers. We should wait for God’s time. God will answer our prayers, if we ask for the right things.Jesus told a story about an unfair judge. The judge refused to help a widow. She appealed to him many times. Finally, the judge agreed to help (Luke 18:1-8). God is better and kinder than an unfair judge. God will help us, when we pray.When people steal money, they don't understand how much hard work it takes for honest people to earn that same amount, so they often waste their stolen money without a second thought.On the other hand, an honest person works hard for their money and is careful not to waste it.Verse 12 comes to mind whenever I hear about a child who is excited about doing something, only to be disappointed when a parent has to cancel. Each disappointment makes the child sadder. Parents need to keep their promises to children just as they do to other adults.Let me ask you: Is a promise to an adult more important than a promise to a child? To God, a vow is a vow. If you told your children you would take them to a ballgame and then your boss asks you to work overtime, do you automatically agree to work? If you make a promise, you need to keep it, so be careful about what you promise.If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
