Best Efforts
















This from my favorite blog, and group at Facebook, Contemplative Christianity



Heart of Love: Turn our Lazarus lives into resurrection love. Use the failures of our best efforts to be the locations of your transforming grace. In our powerlessness to do, draw us into divine union to you, our heart of hearts. With Christ, in the unity of the Spirit. Amen.


(Lyrics by Porcupine Tree)

As the cheerless towns pass my window
I can see a washed out moon through the fog
And then a voice inside my head breaks the analogue
And says

"Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

I survived against the will of my twisted folk
But in the deafness of my world the silence broke
And said

"Follow me down to the valley below
You know Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

"My David don't you worry
This cold world is not for you
So rest your head upon me
I have strength to carry you"

(Ghosts of the twenties rising Golden summers just holding you)

"Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Come to us Lazarus
It's time for you to
go"
