Grace for your spirit March 23, 2009

Grace for your spirit

A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones.  Proverbs 17:22

Have you ever had one of those weeks when everything seems to break your spirit?  Sometimes under the weight of criticism and problems we can feel our bones drying up.  Those are the times when we need some medical attention right away.  God said that a joyful heart is good medicine.  A good laugh or two can lift us physically, emotionally, and spiritually.  Last night I spent a little time with a group of laughing Christians.  Mostly we were laughing about funny things we had experienced with our church families.  As we left the restaurant, I heard this statement more than once, “After the week I’ve had, I really needed that laugh.”  May we all find a little joy, have a little laugh, enjoy the medicine, and enjoy the healing today.

 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit

Philippians4:23
