It was a cold winter day that Sunday. The parking lot to the 36 was filling up quickly. I noticed, as I got out of my car, fellow church members were 37 among themselves as they walked in the church. As I got 38 , I saw a man leaning up against the wall outside the church. He was almost lying down 39 he was asleep. His hat was 40 down so you could not see his face. He wore shoes that looked 30 years old, too 41 for his feet, with holes all over them and his toes 42 out. I guessed this man was 43 and asleep, so I walked on 44 through the doors of the church. We all talked for a few minutes, and someone 45 the man lying outside. People whispered but no one took 46 to ask him to come in, 47 me. A few moments later church began. We were all waiting for the Preacher(牧师) to take his 48 and to give us the Word, 49 the doors to the church opened. In 50 the man walking down the church with his head down. People gasped and whispered and made 51 . He made his way down the church and up onto the pulpit(讲坛) where he took off his hat and coat. My heart 52 .
There stood our preacher……he was the “homeless man”. The preacher took his Bible and 53 it on his stand.
“ 54 , I don’t think I have to tell you what I am preaching about today. If you 55 people by their appearance, you have no time to love them.”
