Don't fall out of windows.

If we don't listen to our Church leaders we may fall out of windows.

Acts 20:7-12
7 And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
8 And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.
9 And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.
10 And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.
11 When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.
12 And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

So many times our Church leaders are teaching us but we zone out thinking it is not important, or it is not God speaking to us. But in reality it is the Lord speaking to us through His servants, so we should strive to pay attention to them and really listen. We should avoid the tendency to knod off and risk ourselves, maybe not to falling out windows, but to falling out of chairs or falling out of our testimonies.
