Over the past years, at Christmas, the Crouse United Methodist Church/CUMC Outreach Class sponsors "Lighting the Tree" and Pat Heafner, member of the Outreach Class, says that 2022 will see the tradition continued. Last year this Outreach proj- ect collected $1064.00 for Christian Ministries of Lincoln County and the hope this year is to match or exceed last year's donation. The tree will be up early this year and as always, the tree will be located in the CUMC Gazebo. The lights are turned on for the Crouse community to enjoy. Each light on the tree signifi es a loved one to be honored or remembered. Anyone interested in sponsoring a light or lights on the Community Christmas Tree please contact Pat Heafner at the address below to receive a form which you can use to donate. Remember, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Christian Ministries of Lincoln County. Please think about a donation, ensuring that this year's project is a success. Your donation will help those who are less for- tunate. Crouse United Methodist Church is located at 3311 Crouse School Road, Crouse NC. The mailing address is Outreach Class c/o CUMC, PO Box 43, Crouse, NC 28033. 2518 W. Dixon Blvd. Shelby, NC 704-487-5811 Sandy Plains Baptist Church 2112 New House Rd, Shelby, NC (4th Part of the "THANK- FUL" series) A m a n was taking it easy, lying on the grass and looking up at the clouds. He was identifying shapes when he decided to talk to God. "God", he said, "how long is a million years?" God answered, "In my frame of reference, it's about a min- ute." The man asked, "God, how much is a million dollars?" God answered, "To Me, it's a penny." The man then asked, "God, can I have a penny?" God said, "In a minute." Life brings us pain and sor- row sometimes, but the days when we are laughing and en- joying ourselves are precious moments. We should savor, em- brace, and be thankful for them. Also, there is power and healing in ebullience. God has given us a powerful tool to help us navi- gate through the daily challenges with resilience and optimism - it's Laughter. Often I watch comedy shows, read jokes, or even just force myself to laugh until it becomes real in order to pull myself out of a despondent mood. I will also ask God to fill me with joy, because I don't want a spirit of heaviness drain- ing my strength. Proverbs 17:22 (NLT) says, "A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person's strength." Scriptures to meditate on about laughter: Genesis 21:6: "And Sarah declared, 'God has brought me laughter. All who hear about this will laugh with me." Job 8:21: "He will once again fill your mouth with laugh- ter and your lips with shouts of joy." Psalm 2:4: "But the one who rules in heaven laughs." Psalm 30:11: "You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy." Psalm 126:2: "We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. And the other nations said, 'What amazing things the Lord has done for them.'" Ecclesiastes 3:4: "A time to cry and a time to laugh." Ecclesiastes 8:15: "So I rec- ommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun." Luke 6:21: "God blesses you who are hungry now, for you will be satisfied. God blesses you who weep now for in due time you will laugh." PRAY THIS PRAYER: "Father, I trust in you and you always hear my prayers. Therefore my heart celebrates, and I will always give thanks to your holy name and I will sing a song of joy and praise. You are the God of joy; you created laughter. You want me to laugh and be full of unspeakable joy. I praise your holy name for all your wonderful deeds toward me that have put a smile on my face and brought me great joy! I am thankful that I don't have to be depressed. I don't have to ever stay down in the dumps. Your word says that weeping may en- dure for a night but joy comes in the morning. In Jesus' name I pray - Amen." Danyale Patterson would love to hear from you! Con- tact her at www.danyale.com to share a testimony, send a prayer request, or book her to speak. Thankful for Laughter DANYALE PATTERSON
