Verse 24 - "there is one who scatters, yet increases more;
And there is one who withholds more than is right, but it leads to poverty."
Generosity brings more wealth, not less.
Jesus gives at the cross and receives more honor than before (Philippians 2:9-10).
Frugality taken too far is not right.
Verse 23 - "the desire of the righteous is only good,
But the expectation of the wicked is wrath."
What do we look ahead to the future for? The good pursue holiness while the bad wait for the other shoe to drop.
Jesus endured the cross for the joy set before Him (Hebrews 12:2).
