He who trusts in his riches will fall, But the righteous will flourish like the green leaf. Proverbs 11:28
This verse is a reminder to us that while we may strive to become rich (and there’s nothing inherently wrong with that), if we trust in our riches, and they become an idol to us, we will fail. If we follow God, then we will flourish as a "green leaf".
