Last night at church one of the kids was acting up (suprise suprise my precious angel see the pic) and I had to pull her into the office and I told her I was going to take her home early and she started to cry, loudly stating that she did not want to go home, I had to spend some time talking with he to calm her down, and I gave in and let her stay with the promise that she had to behave. So here comes the good stuff.
While my little angel was sitting next to me she laid her head on me and fell asleep to my breathing patterns. Now I learned somewhere that when you start to breath slowly it can cause others to do the same thing. So as I breathed slowly and she laid her head on me she fell asleep right there in church. She was so comfortable falling asleep right there that she even began to snore. (this brings out the question which is worse a running around child or a snoring child) So as I gently told her she was snoring and she would stop and then go back to it.
Then I began to think, God wants us to be that close to him that we would lay our head on his chest and fall asleep to his heartbeat and breath. Could you imagine if we were that close to God that we fell asleep in his presence to his breathing patterns and heartbeat?
