Job 8:21(NASB) "“He will yet fill your mouth with laughter And your lips with shouting."Did you hear about the young farmer who returned to the farm store to buy more baby chicks, the lady at the counter asked him that he must have a huge farm for this was the third time he was buying 1000 chicks. Today's verse shares about laughter and shouting with joy! The young farmer replied "I don't have a big farm but I am not sure if I am planting them too deep or too close together, but they aren't growing! (think about it!) Sometimes life can get so confusing and stressful that we need a good laugh to relieve the pain of the struggle. I am sure when God sees some of the things we humans do, He must laugh a little, or in my case, laugh a lot! My mom always said that "laughter was lubrication for the soul", when was the last time you laughed, oiled your soul so you can face the day with a smile on it?! BTW, if you go around with a smile on your face, people will think you're up to something! Maybe the something we are up to is bring God the glory by simply smiling at each other?! Have a good laugh today, it will help! peace, tom
