When I'm down in the dumps, so to speak, a good laugh helps to lift me above my discouragement. It's hard to find a good laugh sometimes, but it's well worth the investigation when I do. Whenever I'm out at a store somewhere, and I see someone that looks sad and down, I always try to do something to make them laugh. It doesn't always work, but when it does work, everyone is laughing. Not many people have much to laugh about these days. If it weren't for politicians, some people wouldn't have anything to laugh at. Many a time, my wife and I will be sitting in the living room watching a little TV and much of that time is filled with laughter. Not so much what's on the TV, but our response to what's on TV. Most of the time we watch TV while eating supper. Almost nightly, the advertisements had to do with some cure for diarrhea during that time. So why do I want to hear about diarrhea while eating supper? It sort of quenches my appetite at the time. That in itself has caused us to laugh many a time. We can either laugh at it or get upset. More often than not, both of us choose the laughter element. Nothing lifts us better than laughter, no matter what we laugh at. Thinking about how important laughter was in my life, I was reminded of the Bible verse. David said, “Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them” (Psalm 126:2). That verse sums up the important aspect of my life. Because of the great things God has done for me that has become the platform for healthy laughter in my life. Looking at my life from God's perspective, there are many things that would induce laughter. Tweet
