1. Let love and faithfulness never leave you (1-5)
People want long life, prosperity and favor and good name from others. But how can we have them? Solomon shares the secret to be blessed: Do not forget but keep God's commands in your hearts. Let love and faithfulness never leave you. Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Lean not on your own wisdom. Acknowledge God in all your ways. In summary, 'Seek first God, and all these things will be given to you as well" (Mt 6:33).
2. Honor the Lord with your wealth (7-10)
How can we be healthy? Solomon answers: Do not trust your own wisdom but fear the Lord and shun evil. How can we be rich? If we learn how to honor God with our wealth, not with leftovers but with our first fruits, and then God will fill our purses and our bank accounts to overflowing.
