Hello ,
The ability to laugh
is one of the greatest gifts that we have been given, and we're blessed to enjoy it. How long has it been since you had a "cut-loose-shake-all-over-belly-laugh" that takes over your entire body for a few moments? You know the kind that I'm talking about; that laugh that hits you suddenly and makes your entire world just a little bit brighter for a moment?
It happened to my family a few years ago in a Wal-mart as we were shopping. We came upon a good friend, and were enjoying an animated conversation when I did something that caused the entire party of people to laugh out loud right there in the center aisle. I was emphatically saying something, and to punctuate the point I was attempting to make, I threw my arms out to the side. My right arm hit a sign that was right above a stack of ketchup,
and the sign was sent twirling around and around on its stand before I knew what was happening.
Yes, I was a little embarrassed but the laughter that ensued was almost worth it. It was a small unexpected thing that just randomly occurred, and everyone that was standing with us seemed to enjoy the spontaneity of it
all.
The scriptures tell us that a merry heart does good like a medicine. Perhaps laughter is just the medicine you're needing today.
Thank-you Lord for the gift of laughter.
Please help me to keep my joy through my entire day. Amen!
Have a great day, and God bless!
