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!!
