Written by Kathy Loftman from the Village Church.
It was midnight after the Village Church Christmas Eve Service. Most all the congregation had filed out of the sanctuary. The organ was playing the postlude, a beautiful, almost haunting piece that sounded like a carillon. The room was darkened and still. I intensely felt God’s amazing presence as I had never felt it before. It was beautiful, overwhelming, and awe inspiring. This was His special night of celebration. This moment is one of those few special “snapshots” of life that I shall never forget. I felt alone with God, the beautiful organ piece, and the light dimly shining through our beautiful stained-glass windows. I shall forever treasure my special time in the presence of God.
God my maker, who giveth songs in the night. [Job 35:10]
