God has a great sense of humor.  Just look at some of those creatures in the animal kingdom He created…the two-toed sloth, for instance!  When you read some of the things that Jesus said, you just know that there was laughter in His presence.  God created us to laugh and we need to laugh…likely much more than we do.  In fact, there is research that claims that good, hearty laughter reaps some physical health benefits. “When you laugh, your heart rate increases, and you take many deep breaths. This means that more oxygenated blood is circulated through your body – improving your vascular function” (Henry Ford Health System Staff).  So, like our Christian comedian friend, Ken Davis, says, “Lighten up…and laugh!”

Psalm 126:2-3

2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter And our tongue with joyful shouting; Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.” 3 The LORD has done great things for us; We are glad.

Proverbs 17:22

A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones.

“Let the sound of your laughter be a source your family and friends can identify you with and remember you by.” ~ Ken Davis

The Lord bless you and keep you…
