You Took My Parking Space 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."
