A song in the dark
April 18th, 2006
During our Easter service we had a power failure and black-out that covered the whole Guilin Building.
First time in 10 years, a complete blackout after the fourth(?) praise song….we kept singing, the worship leader , Agnes was calm and quick, said it should remind us of the darkness of sin we were once in, and the darkness that accompanied Jesus’ death on the cross, etc. giving me time to think and make some decisions.
Finally I told them to take a 15 minute break and come back by then and if power is not back yet, we head for the beach, have our service there, and then the baptism. Good thing the power came on and we continued with the service.
It was like the service went through death and resurrection, tomb and sky, darkness and light. Unforgettable service!
I wonder if God did anything or said anything to anybody as we sang and prayed in the darkness? Please relate what you felt and experienced.
