After a year like 2020, we need to have a little humor in our lives. While not trying to diminish the severity of what a lot of people went through (and still are going through), I think it is important to be able to smile and even laugh out loud once in a while.

Humor is described as the ability to see or show the funny or amusing side of things.

In a search through the Bible, humor is used more than eighty times. Who but God could use a talking donkey to get His point across (Numbers 22:21-34)? So I hope these few bits of humor make you smile today.

A girl was visiting her friend who had acquired two new dogs. She asked, “What are their names?” The friend replied, “This one is Rolex and that one is Timex.” The girl replied, “Who ever heard of someone naming their dogs those names?” “What’s wrong with it?” said the friend, “They are watch dogs.”

Why did the man put his car in the oven?
He wanted a hot rod.

Why did Humpty Dumpty have a great fall?
To make up for a bad summer.

What did the left eye say to the right eye?
Between you and me, there is something that smells.

What is brown and sticky?
A stick.

My prayer is that, just for a moment, you found reason to smile.

(Read Deuteronomy 14:18 to understand the title!)
