Fantastic Friday #294- Laughter

Laughter

1 When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion,
we were like those who dreamed.
2 Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
“The LORD has done great things for them.”
3 The LORD has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy. Psalm 126:1-3

I wonder how many of you got a good laugh last night when I sent the email out without anything in the message except for one word. There is research that purports laughter can extend your life. I am sure many of you feel much better after a good belly laugh. I know that I have laughed quite a bit this week and so has my mother-in-law, probably because the kids have been so outrageous. So when you think of our Lord and what He has done for us, are you a solemn person filled with joy, or do you ever let yourself laugh with joy for what God has done for us. I think there is a solemn time for reverence for our Lord but I also think there is a time for laughter and joy. Take a moment to laugh this week, it just might remind you of how joyful your life can be.

Have a great weekend.
