What
if they laugh at us? None of us want to
be the butt of a joke.
But
on second thought, why not? If your goal
is to have it all together, or at least appear to, then there is no joy in
being the butt of the joke. But if
you’re living in the grace of Jesus precisely because you don’t have it all together, then laughter at you is laughter with you
– and, as it turns out, laughter with God.
Tim
Hawkins has a marvelous gift for eliciting such laughter, as you can see from
this video. He has a bunch more on
youtube. Check him out, and find joy in
being the butt of the joke.
What
if they laugh at us? Or more to the point, what if they
don’t?!
Ha!
