Sometimes, it’s just good to laugh.

Proverbs 15:13 (Message) says:
A cheerful heart brings a smile to your face;
a sad heart makes it hard to get through the day.

This 30-second commercial brought a smile to my face during the Olympics, and I thought I’d share it with you.

I’m not into scary movies and/or films about zombies, ghosts and people speaking to the dead, especially directed at our children. Yet, this Olympic parody from Focus Feature’s 3D animated film Paranorman made me chuckle.

Take 30 seconds and cheer your heart today.
If this doesn’t do it, find something that does.

The proverb is true.

A sad heart does make it extremely difficult to get through the day. If your day has started on a down note, turn it around. Many times, we can choose to flip the script and look at our situations just slightly different, resulting in joy instead of sorrow.

Now, if you are facing an unbearable hurt, my heart breaks for you. Some seasons are like that. Hang in there. Lean into the Lord. Leeeaaaannnn! He is so able to carry you.

But if you are just dealing with the normal ebbs and flows of life and ended up this morning with a down instead of an up, switch that thing up.

It’s your choice!
Find a reason to smile today, to laugh, to enjoy the life we’ve been given.

Lots of love from the LaLa,
Naima

  1. Hey, Naima, Grace, peace and joy to you and yours !

    Su and I recently rescued a German Shepherd puppy, about 1 yrs old. She has a passion for romping through our little goldfish pond complex, so we decided to be proactive, and got her own pond, a plastic swimming pool. At the appointed time, we filled it up, got the mane and tail wash stuff, a hose, and figured she would romp into the pond, make a complete mess, and we would love it, right ?

    Oh nooooooooooooooooo; couldn’t get her silliness in it at all, so we chased her around the yard, soaked her, washed her, soaked her again. I think Su and I laughed so hard we almost cried.

    Baby Reba failed to see the humor in the situation, hee hee !
