SILLY MOMENTS

1 Timothy 6:17 NIV …but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.

Do you ever have ‘silly’ moments? I did the other day when I sat and bounced up and down on the bed like a kid because it just felt bouncy!🤣 There is no age limit on it! Or maybe find a pot of bubbles and blow them for the fun of it? 

Sometimes it does us good to just be a bit silly because life can be so serious and intense and God gave us a sense of humour to lighten our moment!

God has given us permission to enjoy life, and for you, that will look different to me, but nevertheless God has given us all things to enjoy - so let’s not forget to enjoy it or feel guilty when we do!😊

When life is hard we have to remember the joy of the Lord is our strength. So let’s stir the joy up and sing in the shower at the tops of our voices, or just laugh at nothing at all because we’re still alive and Jesus loves us.

Today let’s look for the funny side of life, and have a sense of the ridiculous. Watch raindrops chasing each other down the window pane or enjoy the birds bathing in a puddle of water. We have several dishes in the garden which we fill with water and it’s funny watching the birds choose which one they will bathe in today. Some like it deep, some like it shallow and others fuss with each other waiting to have a go!😊

They are little joys which God gives us which make us smile if we recognise them. It’s even good to laugh at ourselves when we do something daft! So, how about you? Can you put a dish out for a bird bath or blow some bubbles, or maybe make and toss some pancakes in the air, or say ‘Boo’ to someone, or tell a joke and make them smile? 

Whatever you do, tap into the joy of the Lord today and find His joy in your everyday. If nothing else, you can laugh at me bouncing on the bed!😊

Have a blessed weekend.x😊
