A Priest dies & is awaiting his turn in line at the Heaven's Gates.
Ahead of him is a guy, fashionably dressed, in dark sun glasses, a loud shirt,
leather jacket & jeans.
God asks him: Please tell me who you are, so that I may know whether to admit
you into the Kingdom of Heaven or not?
The guy replies: I am Pandi, Auto driver from Begaluru!
God consults his ledger, smiles & says to Pandi: Please take this silken robe &
gold scarf & enter the Kingdom of Heaven?
Now it is the priest's turn. He stands erect and speaks out in a booming voice:
I am Pope's assistant so & so, Head Priest of the so & so Church for the last 40
years.
God consults his ledger & says to the Priest: Please take this cotton robe &
enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
'Just a minute,' says the agonized Priest. 'How is it that a foul mouthed, rash
driving Auto Driver is given a Silken robe and a Golden scarf and me, a Priest,
who's spent his whole life preaching your name and goodness has to make do with
a Cotton Robe?'
"Results my friend, results,' shrugs God.
'While you preached, people SLEPT; but when he drove his auto, people PRAYED.'
It's PERFORMANCE & not POSITION that ultimately counts.
Cheers
