He was a frequent flyer when I was a paramedic. On those trips, we would banter back and forth. During one ambulance run, I asked, “Were you in the war?” and he replied he had been. I continued, “Were you the man who shot down the Red Baron?” With a red face and steam coming out of his ears, he shouted, “No, no, not the First World War, the Second World War!” I won on that trip.
Humor is good when it has a place. Even the Bible refers to humor, i.e., the laughter of God.
The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for He knows their day is coming.
I in turn will laugh when disaster strikes you; I will mock when calamity overtakes you—
Defying the Creator of the universe is a futile exercise. Don’t let Him have a chance to laugh at you. Submit to His authority. Give it some thought.
