Humor can be one of our best survival tools.
Humor does not diminish the pain–it makes the space around it get bigger.

Politicians are like ships: nosiest when lost in a fog.
Oratory is the art of making a loud noise sound like a deep thought.

The reason some of us are such poor specimens of Christianity is because we have no Almighty Christ. We have Christian attributes and experiences, but there is no abandonment to Jesus Christ.
From John 4:11-14: “The woman said to him, ‘Sir, you have no bucket, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? Are you greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us the well, and with his sons and his flocks drank from it? Jesus said to her, ‘Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink of the water that I will give them will never be thirsty. The water that I will give will become in them a spring of water gushing up to eternal life.’ The woman said to him, ‘Sir, give me this water, so that I may never be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water.'”

You cannot out-dream God.
From John 10:10: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

Touch the heart, teach the mind.
The world is the true classroom. The most rewarding and important type of learning is through experience, seeing something with our own eyes.

Forget the faults of others by remembering your own.
From John 8:7: “When they kept on questioning Him [Jesus], He straightened up and said to them, ‘Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.'”

When you say a situation or a person is hopeless, you are slamming the door in the face of God.
From John 16:32-33: “The hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each one to his home, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone because the Father is with me. I have said this to you, so that in me you may have peace. In the world you face persecution. But take courage; I have conquered the world!”

He will clothe you in rags if you clothe yourself with idleness.
From Romans 12:11: “Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord.”

Our Lord is ultimately acquainted with all our ways. Darkness and light are alike to Him. Not one of us is hidden from His sight. He sees it all. He knows our frame. He remembers we are dust . . . Best of all, He loves us still.
From Proverbs 10:12: “Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.”

A little rest and meditation, often saves a lot of riding over rough country.
If you want to be creative, go where your questions lead you.
