Proverbs 11:24

Proverbs 11:24

Little Bible — for children and parents · Growth Figures · © Growth Figures. All rights reserved.

This is one of Scripture's clearest statements of the paradox of generosity. Scattering (generous giving) leads to increase — because God multiplies what is given away. Withholding beyond what is wise leads to poverty — not just materially but often in relationships, community, and soul.

Memory phrase: Generosity grows. Hoarding shrinks.

Talk about it: Have you ever given something away and felt richer?

Prayer: God, make me a generous giver like You.
