If you do, you may end up wasting your money and falling into poverty.Verse 18 is a bit harder to grasp, but it seems to say that any trouble meant for a good person will instead come upon the wicked. Those who plot evil against righteous people will face the consequences of their own actions.In Esther chapters 5-7, an evil man (Haman) suffered the punishment that Haman plotted against a good man (Mordecai). Another example is Exodus 12:35-36.Think about this: What if you had enough money to enjoy every pleasure imaginable? How might that lead to poverty? Even if you don’t lose all your money, your life could still be empty. Focusing only on pleasure means you won’t have time to invest in things like family, marriage, or helping others. Raising children, for example, takes a lot of work and sacrifice. A life spent seeking only pleasure won’t leave room for these deeper, more meaningful relationships.If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
