S ~ The blessing of the Lord makes a person rich, and he adds no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22
O ~ This is not a verse about prosperity, but about provision, and about source. The Lord is the One who a) is our source of blessing; b) is generous to give increase; c) richness is not limited to finances; d) God’s blessing includes finances; e) no strings of sorrow are attached from Him.
A ~ Not everyone is intended to be rich, but when someone is rich, it is good to acknowledge that it is the blessing of God extended, and for the rich to be a blessing, not a money hog. One person’s richness should not cause another to have sorrow - as He adds no sorrow with His blessing - to the rich or those around them.
P ~ Lord, please help me to manage my riches wisely, to bless others, not hoard for myself. May I be generous, wise, and thankful.
