BIBLE REFLECTION

Job 8:21

“He [God] will yet fill your mouth with laughter/and your lips with shouts of joy.”

What effect does laughter and joy have on your thoughts, emotions, and body?

MEDITATION

God must have planned for us to have many moments of laughter and joy because it lifts our spirits and makes us feel good even when everything seems to be a heartache. I decided to laugh rather than cry when it came to my mother’s dementia. She did some strange things like burning toast over and over throughout the day and placing a folded nightgown in the oven. Her silly little antics make me smile even now so many years later.
