Laughter

Have you ever had a good belly laugh and then said  "I needed that?"

The term Laughter is the best Medicine is no joke.

The following are just a couple of submissions by staff at The Mayo Clinic:

Laughter enhances your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs, and muscles, and increases the endorphins that are released by your brain.

A rollicking (For some reason that word made me smile) laugh fires up and then cools down your stress response, and it can increase and then decrease your heart rate and blood pressure.  The result?  A good relaxed feeling.

Here's a joke that I hope will give you a little chuckle, and who knows,  when you share it with someone else it just might turn into a belly laugh.

A man and his wife were in a restaurant.  He orders a meal of cows tongue.  She says to him, "Gross, how could you eat something out of an animal's mouth?" Then she turns to the waitress and orders a fried egg sandwich.

  Rejection One of the most painful human experiences is that of rejection. If you are feeling the sting of rejection and are thinking that no one understands, know that Jesus does.  John 1:11 tells us that He came to His own country and His own people did not receive Him.  On the night before His crucifixion, when He was arrested, His friends all ran away and left Him (Matthew 26:56). So let the one who has been there hold and comfort you and He will give you the assurance that when you open your eyes everything will be all right.  You will be assured that on the other side of the door acceptance is waiting.                                                                                  Sim ply Put: There is acceptance after rejection.

  Bell Let's Talk Now in it's 12th year Bell Let's Talk Day, which was held on Jan 26th this year, hopes to raise both awareness and money for mental health, with the goal of eliminating the stigma around mental illness, supporting organizations across Canada to help improve mental health care access, and funding research that could one day offer promising treatments.                                                         I shared the following on Facebook during Bell Let's Talk Day last year.  January 28-2021 I wrote the following poem awhile ago but never shared it because...well just because. I am sharing it now because...well just because.                                                         Go...

What the Bible says about the Occult   Occult is defined as:  supernatural, mystical, or magical beliefs, practices or phenomena.      The Bible makes it quite clear that we are to avoid   anyone or anything that tries to replace God and His plan for our lives.  Acknowledge that I alone am God and that there is no one else like Me (Isaiah 46:9).  For I alone  know the plans I have for you (Jeremiah 29:11).      But people will tell you to ask for messages from fortunetellers and mediums. "With their whisperings and mutterings, they will tell us what to do."  They will say, "After all people should ask for messages from the spirits and consult the dead on behalf of the living."  You are to tell them , Listen to what the Lord  is teaching you!  Don't listen to mediums-what they tell you will do you no good (Isaiah 8:19-20).                         ...
