This famous song is mostly song around Christmas time and has been for well over a century. The impact this song has had on people's lives is immeasurable and shows just how great God truly is. History into this song will show that it was originally wrote because the church organ had become broken. The organ was the key accompaniment to many songs so Silent Night was composed with a guitar as the only accompaning instrument. Had the organ not broke then the song never would have existed!
I bet there was a lot of stress and worrying going on at the church when the organ broke but, unbeknownst to the pastor and congregation, the organ breaking was all apart of God's grander scheme. This plan that he thought out would travel so far to where both you and I have song along to this very song, or at the very least heard of it. This shows us that even the tripups, the headaches, and the speed bumps and life are not just random annoyances thrown into your day. Instead, these are ways that God is trying to get our attention so that He may do great works through us.
