Chaplain's Corner
Did you hear about the accident at Fort Knox, Kentucky?
A tank ran over a box of popcorn and killed two kernels.
Did you know that laughter is good medicine? It says so in the Bible “A cheerful heart is good medicine…” (Prov. 17:22 NIV).
So, if you are feeling down, seek laughter. You may find it in a child, a funny movie, book, or friend. Allow it to consume your whole self. It may not change your circumstances, but it will change your entire outlook.
Have a blessed day, and know that God loves you!
