Proverbs 11:24-25
“There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains only poverty. The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself.”
This passage is from the book of Proverbs, a collection of ancient wisdom sayings primarily attributed to King Solomon in Israel. It offers practical advice on living a virtuous and wise life, often using vivid imagery and contrasts to illustrate its points, here focusing on generosity and its outcomes.
What might it look like to 'scatter' time, energy, or care in ways that unexpectedly bring increase to your life or community?
