At a Bible study last night we were reading sections of Wisdom, and discussed briefly how God punishes sin by simply letting us experience the consequences.
Thus we are chastised by the same false goods we chose when we sinned.
One of the guys pointed out that this is generational, too. The Boomers are hoarding their wealth, and now a stock market crash is wiping it out. Gen Z gives themselves over to their phones, and then suffers from intense loneliness. Other examples abound.
Love your neighbor, strive for virtue, and trust God.
