Easter is April Fool's Day: What have I done for those I love that seems foolish but was something necessary and truly good. How many times must I look crazy to others for all that I do, for all the times I forgive and endure...you don't have to do that! you don't have to put up with that! Why I would of...a long time ago! people say. Our love, when pushed to the limit and beyond is insane in the eyes of many, of all those who have not done crazy good things for love. What about Jesus? Was His Love foolish to us, should He of not loved us so much? to the point of insanity? Is His love irrational, out of bounds, too much...You did not have to do that Lord just to save and heal little ol' me?! Would we say that? when caught in the bush, hanging upside down, on on the edge of a cliff, like a little lamb gone astray? No, we bleat out to the Good Shepherd to come and rescue us! He is not afraid to look like a Fool for love of us, am I willing to look like a fool for the sake of the souls He entrusts to me? Yes, Lord Yes! All the saints were not afraid to look like fools in the eyes of the world. Only Love understands.
