DON’T TAKE THINGS TTO SERIOUSLY

A cheerful heart is good medicine Proverbs 17:22…. Husbands, how do you handle it when your wife bangs up the side of the car while backing out of the garage? Wives, how will you react when your husband tries to fix the washing machine and ends up flooding the laundry room, ruining the brand new carpet in the hall way? The quicker you can see humor in a stressful situation, the better for your marriage! This is especially true with situations that involve destruction or loss of material possessions. Why lay blame and struggle with guilt and bitterness? Since nobody was hurt, the damage is already done, and you know you’ll be telling jokes about the disaster someday, why not just have a good laugh over it now and move on? Laughter takes faith. It requires trust in God, who has unlimited resources and has promised to provide for our needs. Somehow or another He will come through for us. A person who trusts God’s and believes in His power to fulfill them “laughs with no fear of the future.” So the next time things are amiss, just shake your head and chuckle- and think of the stories you’ll tell!
