“Don’t be a Fool”

He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.

Proverbs 10:18

It is a sad and hurtful thing to find out that someone has been pretending to be your friend, and then discover by their actions, ways, and words, that they were really your enemy all along. The Bible calls this kind of pretenders FOOLS. They are always found out, sooner or later, and then everyone knows they are fools. Even the people who are listening to their lying lips and slander know they are fools.

The next time someone pretends to be your friend and you discover that they really aren’t, remember that they aren’t “playing you for a fool.” They are merely showing everyone around them that they are in fact, just another fool. Don’t be caught being a fool. That’s reserved for folks like some politicians, who are only pretending and flattering with lying lips while they actually don’t really care for you us at all.
