These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Laughter for Greater Living

Laughter lifts the heart to health
from the dregs of down to wealth.
Giving Joy and funny jokes
full of life and little pokes.

That laughter is a wondrous rest.
It makes me feel so truly blest.
On Earth it’s not for ev’ry day,
Heaven’s Joy’s fore’er displayed.

Christian’s heart sees more to smile
with new blessings ev’ry mile.
Jesus gives us living Joy
Hope and Mercy to employ.

Grace for daily living here.
Hope forever over there.
Laughter is His gift to us.
Truly blest to daily trust.
