Proverbs 14:9  What do you laugh at?  What do you think is funny?  And, what do you not laugh at?  What things do you not think are funny?  When someone makes fun of a fat person, do you laugh?  But what if that fat person being made fun of is a friend of yours?  Then you wouldn’t laugh because you know them and you like them.  You wouldn’t make fun of them because they are your friend.  Sometimes we laugh at something that we shouldn’t be laughing at.  We may laugh with some of our naughty friends, but when our parents come around, we stop laughing.  We know inside that we should not be laughing and making fun of the wrong things.  Our verse for today says that if we laugh at sin and mock and make fun of sin, we are foolish. Actually, we should be disgusted with sin.  We should not think that sin is funny, because it isn’t.  There is nothing funny about wickedness.  Sin caused Jesus Christ to be beaten on His back until it was bleeding and bruised.  Is that funny?  Sin caused our Lord to have His hands and feet nailed to a rough wooden cross.  Is that funny?  Wicked men hung Jesus up on the cross for everyone to laugh at and to mock.  Should we laugh at Jesus right along with those wicked men?  We should be careful and think about what we laugh at.  If someone tells a dirty joke or makes fun of someone else, we should think if it is right to laugh at what they have said before we laugh with them.  If what they say is funny, we should turn our heads away so that they won’t see us laughing and not look back until we have stopped our laughing.  We should control our laughter.  If we laugh at sin, what does our verse say that we are?  There is nothing funny about sin.  If we think sin is funny, we should watch out.  God calls us a fool.  Let’s control what we laugh at.  Let’s be in charge of our selves.  Let’s realize that our heavenly Father is looking down upon us all the time.  Is He pleased with what we say and do?  Is He pleased with what we laugh at?  Let’s please God and not just some of our silly friends.
