but a person who wants quick riches will get into trouble.

I like these verses and I don't think the author is referring to money when he talks of rich rewards and prosperity.
Have a blessed Sunday!
Proverbs 28
ReplyDelete13 Whoever covers over his sins does not prosper. Whoever confesses and abandons them receives compassion.
Lamentations 2:13-14
13 How shall I admonish you?
To what shall I compare you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
To what shall I liken you as I comfort you,
O virgin daughter of Zion?
For your ruin is as vast as the sea;
Who can heal you?
14 Your prophets have seen for you
False and foolish visions;
And they have not exposed your iniquity
So as to restore you from captivity,
But they have seen for you false and misleading oracles.
Matthew 11:28-30
28 Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light."
