Today, I wanted to share with you some inspiring and funny Christian quotes and sayings. I don’t know about you, but sometimes I can get a little too serious and just need some inspiration, need to laugh and find the humor in life.
There is so much negativity in this world. All you have to do is watch the news. Also, we all face various challenges – financial, loss, physical, family, etc. So, it’s more important than ever to find a way to smile and discover the joy of the Lord in our daily lives.
There’s a scripture that says “the joy of the Lord is your strength”.

Twila Paris also has a song by the same name that continues to be one of my “go to” songs when I am especially stressed.
So here you go. Be inspired and Have a great laugh.
