4) The Lord works out everything to its proper end—
even the wicked for a day of disaster.

Jesus prepares an appropriate end for everything,
including for the Wicked.

19) Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves,
but rather give place unto wrath:
for it is written, Vengeance is mine;
I will repay, saith the Lord.

Exist In Reality
Proverbs 12:9 (NIV)

9) Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant
than pretend to be somebody and have no food.

Proverbs Club Commentary

An insignificant person should appreciate what he has.
A poser suffers from his pretense.
