I don’t believe that it’s God’s intent for us to go around all sad and gloom. In fact, I believe God has one of the greatest sense of humors of all time.

Life has it’s ups and downs but If you’re not careful, you’ll miss the underlying comedy in everything. Sometimes you just have to break down and laugh.

Find the comedy in your day to day interactions. When you’re tempted to get stressed, take a second and dwell on that which amuses you.

Yes, It’s okay to laugh at yourself. Never take yourself too seriously. Most of the things that we face in life or the mistakes that we make, we will end up looking back and laughing.

We may chuckle and say things like, “boy what was I thinking? I’m sure glad I’ve overcome that. What a learning experience that was.” In fact I hear it all the time – the greatest example is in the change of fashion. It could be something from a fashion trend or hair style that we love. Years from now you may look back at the pictures and say, “What was I thinking of wearing that?” You might follow it with a laugh.

What am I saying? Learn not to take yourself too seriously. The laughter may be at your expense but the trade off is much better.

I love how they say that laughter is the best medicine. The good thing is that every time you laugh, you’re getting better. You’re healing. You’re releasing those endorphins on the inside.

As you go through your day, make a choice to laugh more. Don’t sweat the small stuff, laugh at them. If it gets on your nerves, laugh at it. It’s making you better! If it stresses you out, find out the underlying comedy and laugh away. It’s making you stronger! If you get a negative report from the doctor, laugh at it. It’s causing you to heal!

Whatever you do, don’t let the enemy steal your Joy and laughter. He wants to steal your laugh because it’s your supernatural key to victory. Don’t let your victory go to waste today! Laugh at whatever the enemy brings your way as you charge forth into the life of victory that God has in store for you!
