The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. – Proverbs 1:7
Here we are on April Fool's Day and I am sure all of us have had pranks pulled on us or have fooled another person. A fool is a person lacking judgment.
I don’t know about you but I don’t want to be known as a foolish person. The Bible contains many scriptures about foolish people. Look up the word fool or foolish in your Bible or on the Bible Gateway App and you will find several.
Being foolish is not a good character trait. And mocking people who are foolish is unkind. So the focus today is not on fooling people or carrying out pranks no matter how fun or quirky some are but instead is in thinking what the word fool real means. April Fool’s Day is referring to the definition as an action verb in tricking others. Go into today’s prankster day just being grateful that you are not a foolish person.
PRAYER: I yearn to not be a foolish Lord or to do foolish things. Help this day just remain innocent fun for those who participate and give me strength to not walk in foolish ways. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
