Over and over again Scripture speaks to us about the principle of joy that can be found in a relationship with God. Even King David who spent ample amount of time crying out the Lord also took the opportunity to sing praises and dance before the Lord.

Second Samuel 6:14-15 tells us, “David danced before the LORD with all of his might, and he wore a linen ephod. So David and the whole house of Israel escorted the ark of the LORD with shouting and the sound of the horn.”

Laughter and joy rooted in God is something He commands us to do. While it’s easy to stay focused on the stressors of life, staying focused on the joy is much more meaningful.
