Personal Story Of The Day
It's Enough To Make You Want To Laugh
Comparing laughter to exercise, Gallo pointed out that when a person laughs heartily several physical benefits occur. There's a temporary lowering of blood pressure, a decreased rate of breathing, and a reduction in muscle tension. He said that many people sense a relaxed afterglow. He concluded... An enduring sense of humour, especially combined with other inner resources such as faith and optimism, appears to be a potent force for better health.
Christians, above all others, should benefit from laughter because we have the greatest reason to be joyful. Not only do we see the irony of the world we live in, our faith is firmly rooted in God, and our optimism is based on the assurance that our lives are under His wise control. Don't be afraid to enjoy a good laugh... it's good medicine.
Jokes Of The Day
A squad of American soldiers was patrolling along the Iraqi border. To their surprise, they found the badly mangled dead body of an Iraqi soldier in a ditch along the road.A short distance up the road, they found a badly mangled American soldier in a ditch on the other side of the road, who was still barely alive. They ran to him, cradled his blood-covered head and asked him what had happened.
"Well," he whispered, "I was walking down this road, armed to the teeth. I came across this heavily armed Iraqi border guard. I looked him right in the eye and shouted, "Saddam Hussein is an unprincipled, lying piece of trash!" He looked me right in the eye and shouted back, "Bill Clinton is an unprincipled, lying piece of trash too!"
"We were standing there shaking hands when the truck hit us."
************************************
There was a young Irishman who volunteered for military service during World War II. He had such a high aptitude for aviation that he was sent right to Flight Centre skipping boot camp.
The very first day at Flight he solos and is the best flier on the base. All they could do was give him his gold wings and assign him immediately to an aircraft carrier in the Pacific.
On his first day aboard he took off and single-handedly shot down 6 Japanese Zeroes. Then climbing up to 20,000 ft., he found 9 more Japanese planes and shot them all down, too. Noting that his fuel was getting low, he descended, circled the carrier and came in for a perfect landing on the deck. He threw back the canopy, climbed out and jogged over to the captain.
Saluting smartly he said, "Well sir, how did I do on my very first day?"
The captain turned around, bowed, and replied, "You make one velly impoltant mistake!"
************************************
A man is speeding down the freeway when he's stopped by a police car and has to pull over.
"Do you realize you were doing 80 m.p.h. in a 60 m.p.h. zone, sir?" asks the policeman.
"That's impossible, sir, I never break the speed limit," replies the driver.
The driver's wife butts in and says, "Yes, you do, I'm always telling you to keep your speed down."
The policeman says, "I also noticed, sir, that you didn't have your seat belt on.
You put it on as I was walking over to your car."
"That is not true, sir; I always wear my seat belt," replies the driver.
"No, you don't, I'm always telling you to put your seat belt on," says the driver's wife.
"Stupid woman," the driver explodes, "can't you, just for once, keep that big, fat trap of yours shut?"
The policeman is a bit shocked by how the driver is speaking to his wife, so he moves around to her side of the car. "Does he often speak to you like this, madam?"
"Oh, no, officer," she says, "only when he's drunk."

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
The Greatest Everything Ever
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. Revelation 5:12. References from Revelation 5:1-14.
In the very near future, Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God and Lion of Judah, will stand before His Father's throne, ready to break the seven seals and usher in the end of our current history. Our study today is not to explore the symbolisms or meanings of these verses, but to focus on the prayers and praises that are revealed here. Revelation provides excellent guidance for God's purposes that we can add to our prayers. What the angels, people, and others say, shout, and sing in heaven in this book can indeed instruct and encourage us.
The four living creatures and twenty four elders began the praise. Their song expanded outward as thousands upon thousands of angels joined the second verse, then all of creation thundered out the grand finale. It's the greatest concert creation has ever seen! Their theme remains constant: Christ's worthiness. He is worthy to reveal and execute God's plan for the end times because of the redemption He bought for us with His blood.
He saved us from every tribe and tongue and people and nation, both to reign and to serve. He is worthy of all honour and glory and praise forever, superlative upon superlative, as far and as fast as tongues can express them.
The reason why all this is happening... the greatest celebration in the history of the planet? So humans can have total freedom from each other in their choices to serve God's creative purposes and live forever... the days of people suffering the consequences of the actions of others is over. Every living soul is truly free for the first time since Adam and Eve. Free from death and free from sin. The greatest celebration by Christ himself, the greatest master of all ceremonies ever to occur on heaven and earth is for you.
Morning Glory
And in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord. Exodus16:7.
Some days make you wonder if you should have stayed in bed. You cut yourself shaving, you spill coffee on your clothes, you have a computer crash at work, you receive overdue notices in the mail, and your son breaks his arm in the playground at school. It's enough to make you want to crawl under the blankets and hide. The Israelites also were experiencing difficulties. They were hot, tired, hungry and upset. They even wondered if they should have stayed in Egypt. This trip was more difficult than they thought it was going to be.
In the midst of these trials, God did two things: He gave them manna for their physical bodies, but He also promised to reveal His glory to them "in the morning" for their spiritual well-being. God knew that the trials of the day needed a spiritual response as well as physical relief. And He chose to meet that spiritual need while the day was yet young. When the day is hectic, the frustrations plentiful and the disappointments thick, it's time to turn to God. Yet how different the day might have gone had we turned to the Lord before we ever got started.
Whether the events of the day change or not, when we first spent time fellowshipping with God, we are better prepared to face whatever might come. Perhaps you aren't a morning person.... many people aren't. Yet getting up even 10 minutes earlier and spending those moments reading your Bible and praying will produce greater results than you might imagine. When you put God first thing in the morning, it's much easier to keep Him first all day. this gives him room to answer prayers and provide much needed blessings.

Closing Thought
Lord, open my eyes to see with the spirit rather than through the eyes of doubt and fear.Comic
