Once there was a cowboy who was looking for a church. So on Sunday he put on his best shirt, jeans, and boots and went to church.
During the service, he couldn't help but notice all the disapproving looks being shot his way. Afterwards the deacon came back to talk to him.
Instead of a hello, the deacon got straight to the point. "Sir, if you come back next week could you try to dress in your Sunday best."
"This is my best." he replied.
"Well, then could you please pray and ask God what would be appropriate."
The cowboy gave him a funny look, and just nodded.
The cowboy prayed about it. The next week he got dressed in his Sunday best again and went back to the church.
The deacon approached him.
"I thought I asked you ask God what you should wear."
"I did," he said with a smile.
"What did He say?"
"He didn't know what the dress code was because He hadn't been there before."
