"The Rising Sun will come to us from heaven to shine on those living in darkness." Luke 1: 78-79
The Law of Levity by Brennan Manning
Christmas is a vision that enables the Christian to see beyond the tragic in his life. It is a reminder that he needs the laughter of God to prevent him from taking the world too seriously. The Christian law of levity says that whatever falls into the earth will rise again. Christian laughter is the echo of Christmas joy in us.
If you really accept the mystery of Bethlehem, "glad tidings of great joy," your heart will be filled with the laughter of the Father. "You are sad now but I shall see you again, and your hearts will be full of joy, and that joy no one shall take from you" (John 16:22).
Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
"The Lord has done great things for them." Psalm 126:2

I hope your Christmas was merry and pleasant, among friends and family-- and that the Lord will truly bring you healing in His wings! and fill your mouth with laughter and the shout of victory at the great things He has done for you! May the new year bring even more of His grace and glory into your life and the lives of those around you, as you continue to walk in His light.
