God's Mercy Brings Laughter

Abraham falls before god and he laughs, his wife sarah didn't do much better. She also laughs, and in what appears to be a perfect line of sarcasm, she says, will i now have this pleasure? I loved that. This kind of laughter shows up at gyruss house too. If you skip ahead to vers nine, we read that jesus says, this child is not dead, but asleep. And again, their esponse, their response, was not unreasonable. They are not sceptics or cynics. It's just real. In a way, i imagine breathing out their pain and inhaling again, the small hope of what god had promised
