Humor Me
Laughter is Good Medicine
Proverbs 17:22 wisely states, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” The old saying, “laughter is good medicine,” goes back to ancient times!
King Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes 3:4 that in life, there is “a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance.” So when it’s time to laugh, laugh! And know God is
laughing with you.
An example of this was with Job in his grief. His friend came to comfort him and told him, “He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with shouting.” Job 8:21 Job’s friend was
reminding Job and those grieving that God is with us even at our lowest points, and that He will restore our joy in the end.
God wants us to find joy in this life and one of the best ways to do this is with healthy laughter.
I think God, the creator of our bodies, knew that laughter would have physical benefits for those who discovered it. Laughter is found to release hormones in the body that strengthen immune
systems, boosts mood, diminish pain, and protect from the damaging effects of stress. Humor lightens burdens, inspires hope, connects us to others, and keeps us grounded, focused, and alert.

A pastor notices a man in his church that he hadn’t seen in a long time. After the service he said to the man, “Sir, I only see you at Christmas and Easter.
You need to be in the Lord’s army.”
The man replied, “I am in the Lord’s Army, I’m in the secret service.”
