S – One person gives freely, yet gains more; another withholds what is right, 

only to become poor

Proverbs 11:24 CSB

O – These verses encourage generosity. By giving freely a person has plenty, a seeming paradox (cf. 2 Cor. 9:6). Conversely a person who is miserly, failing to help others in obvious need, will himself always be in need (cf. 28:22).

“Proverbs,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

pâzar,  to scatter, whether in enmity or bounty:— disperse, scatter (abroad).

The New Strong’s Dictionary of Hebrew and Greek Words 

A – The person who gives away from themselves (in challenge or in a positive disposition) will have it come again in multiplication.  It appears to be a paradox but it is the law of sowing and reaping.  In being generous, we put ourselves in a place to receive out of our control.  Withholding gives us control but without a return.

R – Heavenly Father, You demonstrate your generosity when You first gave Your Son to be our Savior.  Thank you for the gift of salvation through Jesus.  We invite the Holy Spirit to help us walk in a way that honors that gift.  Help us to be generous today so others may see Your love in us.
