Our reading today is Psalms 14:1.
“The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.'”
Actually it is only the first sentence of the verse, but as important as all of the verse is, I did not want you to get lost in more than these words.
This opening line from Psalms 14 confronts us with a stark reality: the denial of God is not rooted in intellect but in a heart disconnected from truth.
When we disregard God’s presence, we cut ourselves off from his wisdom, purpose, and the moral foundation that guides our lives. It’s easy to overlook God in the busyness of life, but this verse urges us to pause and reflect—are we that fool?
Some say out loud that there is no God. Others won’t say it out loud but live as if God doesn’t exist.
The truth of this sentence challenges us to examine our own hearts and align them with the reality of God’s existence.
