I had The Most Frustrating Fight with technology yesterday . . . which I lost. For some unexplained reason, I couldn’t ever get my Front Porch Friday post video to work (and it still won’t work — please pray). Ever had one of those days?
Anyway, after I finally threw in the towel in my war with technology, Bill and I went to Walmart to pick up a few things for the weekend. He’s a smart phone junkie, so while we were shopping he was scrolling through his emails. Then he started laughing and said, “Oh, Laurie, you gotta hear this.” So right in the middle of the Walmart produce section, Bill started reading . . . and I started laughing. And immediately, I felt SO good.
Girl, you know what? Proverbs 17:22 is true: “A joyful heart is good medicine.”
Need a little dose yourself today? Then enjoy this funny email from Rev. Buddy Fortenberry, one of our very favorite Sagemont Church staff members.
