I was in a garage and the garage door was open. It was a church service but I couldn't see anyone but myself standing, facing the open garage door, looking out into the street. I am praying over communion and ask anyone who wants to partake to come. Slowly a few people come in and we pass out what looks like dehydrated fruit ( a soft purple circular gummy looking thing) as the bread and a small shot glass of juice for the wine. We form a circle around a red lawn mower in the middle of the garage and as I start praying a chorus begins to break out from outside. It is soft at first with several voices but as it keeps repeating over and over it gets louder and is a full congragstion of voices all singing "worthy, worthy, worthy, worthy". Over and over they sing. It is beautiful and filled with the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Then I am alone in an empty garage, the singing continues and I have joined in. A family (mother, father and two younger kids) walk in, they are missionaries and today is their last day and we are sending them back out to their mission field. They are supposed to speak, but the song continues in full strength. I grab my guitar and as the chorus of "worthy" continues I start playing and singing "the only one found worthy, you're the only one worthy" As I sing, I begin to dance and then the family begins to sing and I hear the father sing "the lion and the lamb, you are worthy, the lion and the lamb"
Then we all move out into the street dancing and singing "unto the lamb, unto the lamb" still the chorus of this invisible congregation continues to sing "worthy". There is such joy and celebration as we worship before the Lord along with this invisible congregation (the cloud of witnesses).
The End!
