He Didn't Know
One Sunday morning at our quite ritzy church a man came
in just minutes before the service was to start. He was
dressed horribly. He had on boots, overalls, a flannelshirt,
and a cowboy hat. The entire congregation was aghast !
Many of us quickly sent notes to our minister about our
concern of this. After the service our minister greeted the
humbly dressed man and asked him if he enjoyed the service.
The man exclaimed he had enjoyed it very much.
The minister asked the man to consider possibly dressing
differently, and told him to pray to Jesus about how He
would have him dress if he should return again.
The next week the man returned. He was dressed the same and
once again the congregation was disturbed by this. The
minister greeted the man again and asked him what he had
been told by Jesus concerning how to dress for church.
The man said, "I spoke to Jesus about this but Jesus Said, "
He didn't know how I should dress before coming to this
church because He has never invited to attend here. "
"Hmmmmmnn" I wonder???? Think about this!!
