Acts 20:7-12
On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight. There were many lamps in the upstairs room where we were meeting. Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third storey and was picked up dead. Paul went down, threw himself on the young man and put his arms round him. 'Don’t be alarmed,' he said. 'He's alive!' Then he went upstairs again and broke bread and ate. After talking until daylight, he left. The people took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted. (NIVUK)

This true story has often been treated with amusement – the Apostle Paul preached for a long time until a young man, sitting in an open window-space, fell asleep and dropped three storeys onto the ground outside.  Some say: therefore, preachers should keep people awake with short sermons; and not send them to sleep with long ones.  But stop: the meaning is very different.

“The daily lesson is so quick and easy to read. It helps me to understand the meaning behind the scriptures and ensures I stay focused on God for at least a short period in this busy life we lead. The lesson is easy to print and store for future reference. ”
