Just wanted to say that when you read this "you are loved"! I am starting my day with a hot cup of Door County Peanut Butter Crunch coffee.
April 1st is a day where people will pull a harmless prank on someone and then say"April Fools"!
I have no idea where or when this started. You do the research and let me know. I have been on the receiving end of the pranks and have actually pulled a couple myself. So if the jokes are harmless and cause no pain I guess the tradition goes on.
God actually uses the word fool in the Bible. I thought it would be interesting to see some verses that God equates with fools. Enjoy the reading!
There are Bible verses about fools that help guide us in our daily lives. Many verses in Proverbs and Psalms tell us how to avoid fools, to choose wisely and to live according to God's will. The foolish make bad decisions and can be easily led astray.
Being a fool doesn't mean you are stupid. In fact, usually a fool is someone who just is too lazy to think about the consequences of their actions. So take heed of what is in the Bible about foolishness. That way, you can more easily lead a smart and holy life.
