Father, In Your infinite wisdom You gave us the gift of laughter. Thank You for that. I often picture You getting tickled right along with us at the shenanigans Your children find themselves in. What joy to know that chains break at the sound of laughter. Shadows retreat at the slightest giggle. Tears transform from shards of sorrow to melodic notes in songs of joy. Blessed by Your Name Lord God. That is a miracle and a testimony of Your amazing love.
Help us find Your joy, Lord. Wash over us with abundant grace that allows us to find You and Your joy in the midst of our pain. Open our ears to find the humor. Open our hearts to laugh at ourselves. And let us find healing in the power of joy-filled laughter. We love You Lord and appreciate all that You do for us. Your tender care is so comforting and reassuring. Thank You for Your sweet, sweet Presence in our lives.
