What does this mean?

My dad forced me to go to church (where I havent gone in years) and at the end when people were getting baptized, and while I was watching in my head I was thinking, "this is so boring why can't it end already?" But on the outside I was smiling and crying and I didn't even know it until my dad softly pushed me asking if I was okay. I know that must mean something, but what does it mean?

Perhaps your heart was responding to what was said during the service? Might be a good idea to check it out some more, if only to satisfy your own curiosity.

It means you were being touched by the Spirit of what was happening around you.

You could have been angry or frustrated. I know I cry when I'm highly frustrated. You usually don't tend to notice because you're focusing on your anger too much. How's that for a different answer?

God was probably getting your attention. At any point, did you feel glad you went? And your dad forced you to go because he is trying to help you. If you don't believe in God your life will be miserable.

You were probably smiling because you were subconsciously faking it so as to not appear rude.

As for crying, were you actually weeping or just tearing up? Because the latter could be caused by anything from frustration to dust to the smell of incense many churches use.

Unlike many of the conversion brigade seem to be saying, I doubt very highly something divine was moving you if you were just thinking how much you wanted it to be over.

Your mind was operating in the flesh. But in your heart the Holy Spirit was moving upon you though His power.

Its odd that your feelings were not demonstrating your actions and for u to even be asking this. Usually. A person can sense if God is drawing. You seem open to this. Continue to seek Him .....is all i can advise.
