Soaking in the presence of God

Soaking Night
Every first Saturday of every month is Soaking Night---a night we dedicate to praising and communing with the Father. It is a night packed with singing worship songs and just focusing on God's goodness and majesty. When we worship, we become aware of God's presence. All focus on our problems, on our excess baggage, and on ourselves just melt away. It was a meaningful and eventful night. So many first-timers responded to the altar call and readily accepted Christ in their hearts. Luke 15:7 states that "there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent."
Truly, it was a night of great rejoicing.

"Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol Him with music and song." (Psalm 95:2)
"He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the LORD
and put their trust in Him." (Psalm 40:3)
So many first-time visitors heard the gospel of salvation for the first time; and responded Christ's invitation.
Fellowship after the service. No one was in a hurry to go home.
