Day 26: Proverbs Road Trip

Proverbs 26:11, A fool who repeats his foolishness is like a dog that goes back to what it has thrown up.

Vomit makes a lousy lunch!

I’ve been called a lot of things in my life, some good, some very bad and some have even been true. But, there is one thing I do not want to be called: a fool. Cuss at me, yell at me, but don’t call me a fool. I don’t want to be a fool.

But sometimes I am foolish. Sometimes I do act like a fool. Those are the times when I repeat what I know is going to hurt me. I know the consequences; I’ve been there before, yet I go ahead a do the same thing again. I foolishly convince myself that I will enjoy the sin and get away with it. That’s not only foolish, it’s stupid.

I could never imagine eating my own vomit, yet I will “vomit” up sin and then consider eating it again.

I want to live in such a way that I don’t sin, but just as importantly I want to learn from the mistakes and sins that I have committed and not go there again.

Vomit makes a lousy lunch!
