It is better to be poor and live a Godly life than to be in any other circumstance and be perverse. Our character matters more than our circumstances. It is not good to have zeal without knowledge. God is not the cause of our problems. If we do what God says, it's for our protection. It is better to be poor than a liar. A false witness will not go unpunished. Always tell the truth. If we had a choice between temporary suffering on this earth and eternal punishment, it wise to choose the temporary suffering. It is always better to tell the truth. It is better to be silent than to tell a lie. Remember, no matter what we have done, we can still have a new life in Christ. However, if we are not willing to yield our lives to Jesus, we will end up in the Lake of Fire. Just as the sufferings of this life are temporary, so are the pleasures. If we trust in the Lord, bad circumstances will still come our way, but we will be okay. If we trust in Jesus, we do not need to be afraid. A prudent wife, is a wise wife, given by the Lord. When God pays us back, it is better than any financial return. If we are kind to the poor, we lend to the Lord, and the Lord will pay us back. Many are the plans of a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails. God will prevail and His plan will succeed.
