What Proverbs 11:25 means
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. There is a strange arithmetic in God's kingdom, where the generous find themselves enriched and those who pour out are themselves refreshed. Open-handed living is not loss; it is the very channel through which more life flows back.
