D.L.

Third SATURDAY 9th/ MARCH OF LENT

“We laughed, we sang, we couldn’t believe our good fortune. We were the talk of the nations— “GOD was wonderful to them!”
(Psalm 126,2 MESSAGE)

Try laughing. It is good for the heart.

God, this day we rejoice, we shout, we laugh:
laughter brought about by play,
laughter brought on by joy,
and laughter brought on by surprise.
Sounds of laughter give depth and texture to life,
so let us embrace the source from which it comes:
You.
Amen.¹
