The Gift Of Laughter

When we’re slow to start our day
Things get better if we’ll pray.
A cup of laughter early on
Will chase the blues until they’re gone!

Jesus wants us to have joy
And all His wisdom to employ.
We don’t need to battle gloom.
With His help our day can bloom.

Laughter is a happy choice...
One which makes us to rejoice!
No longer will we fear or fret.
When we choose joy we are “reset”.

Our joy in Him is such a plus.
We rise above life’s “fuss and muss”.
In the Lord we are so blessed.
He gives us joy... and we have rest.

“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”
Psalm 118:24 KJV

“For the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
Nehemiah 8:10 KJV
