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. Just send this to four people and see
what happens. Maybe, just
maybe, we can get the world to start thinking of
who took our place. Do not
break this, please.
