A Rare Look At Jesus Laughing
In The Passion of the Christ, amid the bloody carnage of Jesus’ graphic suffering and violent death, director Mel Gibson flashed back to Jesus as a young carpenter, frolicking with and teasing his mother Mary who revealed her own dry sense of humor.
Gibson’s film was unlike any other depictions of Jesus’ life and death.
Too often filmmakers and the religiously devout are so awe-stricken by Jesus’ Divinity that they forget His humanity.
Life without laughter, even Jesus’ is like a day without sunshine.
Just as human love can reflect Divine love, humor can transcend man’s mortal boundaries and provide a glimpse of God’s Divinity.
Laughter is just the tease, the psychological rush that will prepare God’s faithful servants for an eternal basking in the warmth of His Divine smile.
