Laughter is a gift from God, a gift that He intends for us to use. I love to laugh and I love to make others laugh. In our busy lives, you should always look for the humor that surrounds you and when you do, you’ll find it. I believe optimism and cheerfulness are products of knowing Christ. Because Christ reigns, the Psalmist tells us to rejoice. Yet, sometimes, because of the inevitable stresses of everyday living, we fail to find the fun in life. When we allow life’s inevitable disappointments to cast a pall over our lives and our souls, we do a profound disservice to ourselves and to our loved ones.
If you’ve allowed the clouds of life to obscure the blessings of life, perhaps you’ve formed the unfortunate habit of taking things just a little too seriously. In our world today, you definitely see parents take children’s sports way too serious!
We also see many adults, take recreation sports way too serious! Instead, we should be grateful we have the health to play sports and to enjoy the beautiful weather and fellowship.
It’s time to fret a little less and laugh a little more.
We need to learn to laugh at life. Life has a lighter side – look for it, especially when times are tough. Laughter is medicine for the soul. God created laughter for a reason and Father indeed knows best. So laugh!
