*Just pick up whatever book is lying around close by!
"I've watched more than one woman in my audience get tickled. There she goes, bending over, red-faced, obviously having trouble breathing. Even as I continue telling some silly tale, I keep an anxious eye on her. What's going on? Is she okay?"
This 4 sentence text (5 to be exact) is taken from a devotional book "Rise and Shine" by Liz Curtis Higgs. It was given to me two years ago by my walking buddy. B and I had made it a habit of walking at 6:00 a.m. Maybe she thought I wasn't shining enough at 6 a.m. Anyway, I promised her I would read a 2 minute devotional before I came by her house to make our ritual walk! Contrary to some beliefs, it does make a difference in one's demeanor and attitude!!
The title of the devotional that this passage came from is "Falling Down Funny". I believe it has a lot to say about me when I read some of the humorous blogs of which I've become addicted! Some of them are 'falling down funny!'
God will let you laugh again; you'll raise the roof with shouts of joy...Job 8:21 (The Message)

That is funny. I liked it!
Yeah, that one actually made sense. Most of them on this meme don't.
I love to read devotionals....helps me make it through my hectic life with some shred of sanity!
The closest book I have laying around my desk is a dictionary. How interesting could that be?
Oh and by the way...Boom on Cain & Abel
Glad you're enjoying the BQ!!
about the dictionary and it's interest....depends on what page 123 holds!
whoops! just checked it out!
You're right...you'd really have to work at it to create interest!(lol) You might do something with the word..."bristletail". (btw..that's a silverfish)
Well, my dictionary falls in the 'B's too. Bachelorette and bachelor's button to be exact. The only thing interesting about that is if the bachelorette got some bachelor's buttons in a bouquet (oops, had to look that one up--glad I was already in the B's and yep I spelled it wrong) from a bachelor.
Back to the drawing board for a book to reblog. I hope I made ya giggle cuz I cracked myself up.
It just comes 'naturally'!...you making someone...anyone...me...giggle!
Ahhh haaaa...
