The Wonder That Was Gone

A sunlit meadow bright with pink blossoms and green grass.

“A time to laugh.”

Ecclesiastes 3:4

A time to laugh. Tucked into the famous list in Ecclesiastes is this simple reminder that laughter has its season. It is not frivolous or out of place in a life of faith. After a time to weep, a time to laugh returns. If wonder has felt missing lately, if joy seems to have gone quiet, take heart. Seasons change. Laughter often comes back unexpectedly, through a friend’s joke, a child’s antics, or a bunny’s playful hop in the grass. Watch for it. When the time comes, let yourself laugh freely.
