No one greeted, spoke to, or welcomed him.  They were all appalled by his appearance and did not attempt to hide it.</div> <div>      As the old cowboy was leaving the church, the preacher approached him and asked the cowboy to do him a favor.  "Before you come back in here again, have a talk with God and ask him what he thinks would be appropriate attire for worship in church." The old cowboy assured the preacher he would.</div> <div>      The next Sunday, he showed back up for the services wearing the same ragged jeans, shirt, boots, and hat. Once again he was completely shunned and ignored. The preacher approached the cowboy and said, "I thought I asked you to speak to God before you came back to our church."</div> <div>      "I did," replied the old cowboy. </div> <div>      "If you spoke to God, what did he tell you the proper attire should be for worshiping in here?" asked the preacher. </div> <div>      "Well, sir, God told me that He didn't have a clue what I should wear.  He said He'd never been in this church . .  . . . . . . . ."</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> Food for thought.                                                       11.27.07</div> <bR> <div>      Oh, I just ran across this little bit that seemed appropriate and quite nice.  It was written by a friend, and told to me by another friend who when he heard it the first time, over twenty years earlier, was so impressed that he still rememberes it verbatim.</div> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B>On Sunday</B></div> <div> by: Steinar B Smith</div> <bR> <div> I would rather be riding my bicycle</div> <div> on a trail,</div> <div> on Sunday,</div> <div> thinking of God,</div> <div> than sitting in church,</div> <div> thinking of riding my bicycle.</div> <bR> <div>                                                                                  Hansel </div> <div>  - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</div> <bR> <div> This is kinda neat.  There seems to have been a change of heart.  Here's the front of that church as of October 2009.</div> <div> <IMG SRC="1def4460.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="326" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div> Scars remain... </div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <IMG SRC="1e2ebae0.jpg" border=0 width="235" height="174" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Is there a change of heart on the part of the Rev G.W.
