Regina Spektor Sings “Laughing With”
This is a song from Regina’s fifth studio album, Far, which was released in 2009. It was the album’s first single. I was not familiar with the song. Given the extreme challenges of superstorm Sandy this past week, someone sent it to me from a Spotify share. It struck me as being appropriate for this blog’s Sunday’s digital sermon.
This past week we have all seen such incredible outreach through neighborhood concern. I am reminded of the quote from C. S. Lewis, “Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbor is the holiest object presented to your senses.” The Spektor lyrics are reprinted in their entirety.
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.” Gal 6:7
