Today’s passage contrasts the peace found in simple living with the strife that can accompany wealth, and it underscores the folly of repaying kindness with evil. This is not to be confused with God refining His children through trials. Such trials teach us the value of godly wisdom as we navigate life’s challenges. Please open your Bible to Proverbs seventeen, and listen as Pastor Ray Viola begins his study of this chapter.
