Free-falling

On the first day of the week in Troas we came together to break bread.  Following the meal I spoke to the people at great length as I was leaving the next day and wanted them to hear everything the Lord wanted me to say.  Late into the night as I preaching I heard some commotion and learned that a young man named Eutychus had fallen out the third story window and was now lying lifeless on the ground.  I would like to think that it wasn’t my preaching that put him to sleep but rather the peace of the Lord upon his heart that put him so at ease!
At once I rushed to the boy’s aid and comforted the people there by saying, “Don’t be alarmed, He is alive!” 
By the time I went back upstairs to break bread the boy was alert and being escorted home.  Praise be to the Lord, our Savior!
