I’m not sure I’m right but I’ve decided laughing is not just good for you it’s spiritual in nature. Here are a few reasons.

1. The observation has been made that in all of creation only man can laugh. That in and of its self is a pretty good reason to think laughing is spiritual.
2. Jesus seems to have had a pretty good sense of humor. The plank in your eye and a camel going through the eye of a needle are exaggerations that can’t help but make you smile.
3. Anything that makes you a better person would seem to have spiritual roots. People who laugh a lot seem to be better folks then those who never laugh.
4. A well-developed sense of humor seems to be a trait of balanced people. I have no proof of this but 48 years of observation have brought me to this conclusion. Imbalanced people are not very spiritual in my experience.
5. Laughing seems to be one of the times we release control of ourselves to something else. When you’re on the floor laughing so hard you can’t breath isn’t there a slight chance you’re possessed?

Laughing is one of the things that make life better and anything that makes life better is O.K. by me. I believe it was the Apostle Peter who said there is no law against doing good. He could have just as easily said there is no law against laughing. Unless your mother is sitting behind you in church when your friend sitting next to you starts snoring. Now that’s funny.

Just for fun what’s the funniest thing that’s happen in church that you’ve experienced.
