The righteousness of God is revealed through one whose hands are constantly open to the needs of others and who places his security in God.

I personally know people who complain of not having a job. But once they have gotten a job, they complain of not having a car. When they have gotten a car, they complain about not having a spouse. Once, they have gotten married, their insatiable appetites see them wanting for more. Material blessings have on the contrary cause them to hang on all the more tightly to what they claimed to have earned by their own strength. For such will with relentless envy continue to gorge themselves until they explode. The righteous on the other hand, continues to become evermore peaceable and gracious towards others.
