Thursday Night

This past Thursday evening we had a prayer meeting. We were hoping to capture some of the mood of the night Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane, while his disciples slept. We had no idea how similar our nights would end up...
Before the meeting even started, one of our friends was asleep on the couch. We continued the meeting right around him. As the meeting continued, a few more of us dozed off. Half an hour later, three friends joined us, returning home from work.
Finally, we ended abruptly and left in silence, some in confusion, some a little frustrated with themselves. It was scripture come to life, and it was a great beginning to our very special weekend celebrating our Hero's death and resurrection.
