Proverbs 11:27-28 “The one who diligently seeks good seeks favor, but the one who searches for evil—it will come to him. The one who trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf.”

You tend to find what you are looking for in this life. If you want to find evil, do evil. If you want favor and acceptance, do good! What are you looking for? And if you think riches will bring favor and acceptance, good luck! If you’re looking for something to trust in, look to God!

Matthew 5:6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.”

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight.”

Matthew 6:19-21 “Do not accumulate for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and devouring insect destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But accumulate for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and devouring insect do not destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
