LAUGH HONEY!

The Word of God teaches us in
Proverbs 15:13
A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

This doesn't mean to laugh to the embarrassment and hurt of someone else.
It is not funny to laugh at another mans misfortune.

I have learned that the condition of my heart is my responsibility.
That it is up to me to diligently guard what I allow in.

I can allow sorrow to well up in me if I am rejected by folks or I can sing and laugh for joy and maintain my peace.

I can allow anger to rise up in my heart because of someones lie due to their insecurities and sorrowful life or I can stand in my joy knowing God will handle that.

Sometimes when we get unexpected news or someone snaps at us it hurts.
We are human and God formed us with emotions but when you have the love and Word of Jesus working and dwelling in you richly the emotions don't run you, you run the emotions, sting is but only for a moment.

Now we can choose to drag pain on for an eternity and shape it into revenge which will end in regret or we can choose to let love rule in us.

I say laugh at any bad news, at any one who tries to insinuate that if you are not accepted in them you are not accepted, laugh at the ones who grim you, laugh at those who needlessly compete against you, laugh at those lies.

Because even if the amount of discomfort that you may feel is massive or for a minute it will be turned to joy when you look to the LORD.

LAUGH! NO MAN CAN STEAL YOUR JOY!

UNLESS YOU LET THEM.

NO COMMENT
NO CONDESCENDING OPINION
NO LIE
NO ANNOUNCEMENT.

This is why it's so important to meditate God's Word so that when things are said to make you feel bad or low, you can keep on truckin, keep on winning in Faith, Love and Joy.

No matter what the people say.
No matter what the world says.
God will never change.

LAUGH HONEY!

Proverbs 15:13, John 16:20-22
