Lord Jesus Christ, for some reason many Christians seem to lack a sense of humor. They become so bogged down in the gravity of things that they are perpetually tense and serious-minded. I ask today that I may cultivate a sense of humor and use it to help others as well as myself. Let me realize that humor is also a creation of yours and that a smile is one of the greatest blessings of life. Teach me to stress the positive side of life and develop a fine sense of humor. Amen.
