Laughing Out Loud (LOL)
Scripture: Proverbs 17:22 - A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones.
When was the last time you really laughed
Or do you only remember the moments you are sad
Certainly, engaging in refreshing moments are worthwhile
Yet, I’m fooled that something must happen for me to smile
Surely, a smile doesn’t mean everything is alright
Yet, it represents my hope for the future in Christ
He gives me the peace and joy that surpasses all understanding
A thankful heart that causes plenty singing, dancing, and laughing
My physical eyes see illness, depression, pain, and death
My spiritual eyes see the end of the story once I take my last breath
So, what’s the remedy for disappointments, challenges, and disasters
It’s the medicine that soothes the soul better known as laughter
The bible tells us there is a time to weep and a time to laugh
This means trouble may exist for a moment, but this too shall pass
Therefore, I rebuke satan, negativity, worry, and doubt
This will grant me more opportunities to laugh out loud
Prayer: Certainly Lord, I know You laugh out loud at Your beloved children. Yet, You remain faithful and loving. Father, remove the burdens on my heart that keeps me from laughing with enjoyment. You told us to meditate on the things of God. I am guilty of counting my sorrows rather than blessings. Lord, refresh my heart and soul. I desire to laugh with joy, freely. I make this petition in the name of Your Son, Amen!

A fruit of the Spirit is JOY, whereof, we've the inclination to, reasonably, laugh a lot, and laugh aloud. Praise God with all due gladness. I can imagine Adam seeing a turtle for the first time, and having a good time finding that name.
Amen Zac, Amen!!!
