Laughter is the Best Medicine

Crazy things happen to me. I don’t know why they do,
they just do. For instance about two weeks ago I was
driving down the road, a squirrel ran out in front of
me. I hit the brakes and my cell phone flew into my full
coffee cup. Now that might not be too crazy except for
the fact that it was the second time I’ve dumped a cell
phone in a coffee cup. Luckily I had insurance. I turned
the claim in and replaced it, no problem.
Then on Tuesday of this week I clipped my new cell phone
onto the back of my shorts and went walking. I’d drank
at least two cups of coffee that morning and by the time
I returned from walking I was in a big hurry to get to
the bathroom. I run into the bathroom and splash, there
went the cell phone into the commode. The moral of this
story could be stay away from coffee or else get a
waterproof cell phone.
This past weekend I was giving a speech at a local
church to a group of ladies. Our theme was “Changing
Seasons of Life.” Right in the middle of my speech I had
a hot flash, the kind where you start getting warm on
the inside and before you know it you’re sweating as if
you’d just finished running a marathon. The room was air
conditioned but to my internal thermometer, that didn’t
matter. I had no choice but to stop speaking and come
out of my jacket! I joked with the ladies that I wanted
illustrate what some of the “changing seasons of life”
could do to us.
Yes, crazy things happen to me and for the most part, I
enjoy them. I love to laugh and do my best to have a
joyful heart. I hope when crazy things happen to you,
you can too!
1st Thess. Chapter 5
Verse 16Always be joyful. 17Keep on praying. 18No matter
what happens, always be thankful, for this is God's will
for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
