Think about a paycheck. It’s what someone earns for the work they’ve done. This proverb uses the words “wages” and “earnings” referring to life. The writer is suggesting that the life we want later is connected to the way we live now. However, that doesn’t mean when bad things happen that we did something to deserve it. It isn’t God punishing us because life isn’t just what we’ve done wrong. It just means that what we do and say now impacts us later on. There are consequences or decisions, not because God is mad at us, but because poor choices lead to poor results. Think about the kind of life you want later. What can you start doing now to invest in the kind of future you want later?
