Good Excuses for Sleeping in Church (depending on the church)
The folks at Wittenburg Door have been keeping track:
- Good thing I'm a contemplative!
- Whoa! The Third Heaven is so cool. There's—whoops, sorry. They told me not to tell.
- Isn't this the healing service for narcolepsy?
- I was testing to see if my new Bible cover is, uh, waterproof.
- The church espresso machine is on the blink.
- I wasn't really asleep—just blinded by the pastor's forehead.
- I was entering into the Sabbath Rest.
- Well, excuse me for staying up all night Saturday in prayer.
- I was getting in touch with my inner Bible study.
- I always snore when I'm slain in the Spirit.
I will have dreams every now and then of falling asleep in church and slumping down in the pew! Thank goodness it is only a dream! In real life I can usually stay awake during the sermons unless I stay up way too late the night before! Early service tomorrow will be here before I know it so I better get to bed soon. Otherwise my dream really may come to life! :)
