Day 19 – Laughing With by Regina Spektor

I love this song. God can be a foolish idea worthy to be laughed at, when we make God small and petty and mean. But when those moments that turn our lives upside down come, as they do, God becomes less of an idea and more real. How we have learned to live with God will change how we meet and see God in those moments. May we practice laughing with God in moments of joy and in life, knowing God to be love, so that in the hospital we recognize the God who meets us with only the deepest mercy and grace.
