Does the Bible ever make you laugh out loud?


You know, God does have a sense of humor. The Bible says laughter is medicine for the soul.

Like this one: Job 19:17a (NIV) "My breath is offensive to my wife . . ." Yeah. Been there.

And how about when the Bible talks about bad drivers? 2 Kings 9:20 (NIV)"The lookout reported, "He has reached them, but he isn't coming back either. The driving is like that of Jehu son of Nimshi--he drives like a madman." I guess road-rage isn't a new concept.

It's good to remember that God is funny and He likes to laugh with us. I bet He thinks we're pretty hilarious at times too.

What about you? Has the Bible ever made you laugh? What jokes have you shared with God lately?

If you haven't had a good laugh with Jesus recently, try it. Let Him tickle you, like every good parent does. It's one of the countless ways He loves us!
