YOU TOOK MY PARKING AT CHURCH

One day, a man went to visit a church, He got there early, parked
his car and got out. Another car pulled up near the driver got out and
said, " I always park there! You took my place!" The visitor went inside
for Sunday School, found an empty seat and sat down.

A young lady from the church approached him and stated, "That's my seat!
You took my place!" The visitor was somewhat distressed by this rude
welcome, but said nothing. After Sunday School, the visitor went into the
sanctuary and sat down

Another member walked up to him and said, " That's where I always
sit! You took my place!" The visitor was even more troubled by this
treatment, but still He said nothing.

Later as the congregation was praying for Christ to dwell among them,
the visitor stood up, and his appearance began to change. Horrible
scars became visible on his hands and on his sandaled feet. Someone
from the congregation noticed him and called out, "What happened to
you?"

The visitor replied, as his hat became a crown of thorns, and a tear fell
from his eye, "I took your place."

When you receive this, say a prayer. That's all you have to do. There is
nothing attached. This is powerful. Maybe, just maybe, we can get the world
to start thinking of WHO took our place.
