Psalm 126:2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter
and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then it was said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”

This verse is often interrupted as a reflection on the joy and gratitude that come with experiencing God’s blessings and deliverance.

When considering this verse in the context of Christmas, it can be connected to the joyous occasion of Christ’s birth. Christmas is a time when many people reflect on the idea of God’s great gift to humanity in the form of Jesus. The birth of Jesus is seen as a moment of great significance, bringing hope, joy, and salvation to the world.

Throughout this Advent season, may God fill our hearts and homes with joy and laughter. And may we be ever mindful of His blessings and the great things He has done.
