Jesus Smiled Pictures of Jesus, show His mien, As being sad or full of pain And yet we know He must have smiled. Especially when with a child. We know He loved them, there's no doubt And enjoyed having them about. He must have laughed with them, to see, Their antics and their drollery. They surely sensed how much He cared And all their secrets, with Him shared. That special bond will never end, For children know, He is their friend. He must have laughed with family, Attending scenes of revelery. Weddings, birthdays, celebrations. Visiting with His relations. Though Holy, He was still a man, With all the feelings humans can Experience and so it seems, He might have slept and dreamed men's dreams And in the light of every day, Smiled at the sights that came His way, Where humor brightened life a spell. I think He smiled and laughed as well! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (06-23-2003 02:38 PM).] |

I don't think Jesus was a sobersides either. Nicely done, Betty Lou!  ~Elizabeth Dreams last for so long, even after you're gone... |

I think Jesus and God both smile and perhaps laugh at the foibles of man. Very nicely done. Joyce |

I would hate to think Jesus lived on earth for thirty three years and never smiled or laughed. Thanks for this wonderful reminder. |

Indeed! It's wonderful to know that, although God himself went through great pain, He also smiled and loved and had fun as we do. It's evidence that He also wants us to be happy. Oh, make me Thine forever |

I agree. He gave me "smile", too, and I'm using it now. Thanks, Melton [This message has been edited by 2dalimit (06-27-2003 06:55 AM).] |

 (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, Jesus smiled indeed for the children and those who believed and this means that He too wants us to be happy and why despite the tears and pain that He is stronger than ever! (wipes tears) This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
