A gentleman at a CRHP meeting Monday night told us this joke and I wanted to share it with all of you:
The story goes about a man who after entering the gates of haven was overtaken by surprise and confusion. The cause was not the beauty of paradise, but the people he saw there: liars, thieves, alcoholics and all kind of sinners!
As if this was not enough, he saw there people that hurt him when he was a child, even the old neighbor who was never nice to him… And to top it off, the one person he was absolutely sure was going to go straight to hell was there, too, looking unbelievable well, sitting on cloud nine...
He turned to his angel and told him that God surely made a mistake... He demanded an explanation for these unacceptable things: "How could all these sinners get up here?” - he asked. “And why is everybody so quiet? Please answer me!"
"Hush", said the angel. "They are all in shock. They didn't expect to see you here."
