| Saint Peter A preacher died and went to the pearly gates, saint peter greeted him and said we've been expecting you. He takes him walking down a lane by a lake to a nice little bungelow with a garden and white pickett fence. Here's your new home and wanders back to work. The following morning as he sits on his porch rocker having a coffee, he looks across the lake to see what must be the biggest house he has ever seen. There is a dock with boats and a sliding board, above that a pool with a two story veranda and a band playing. A mansion by anyones standard. He walked up to the gate and asked Peter who was living in the house, the pope or bishop, somebody real important. Peter replies that the house was occupied by a former truck driver. The preacher could hardly believe that and said, I don't mean the be unappreciative but I have given my entire life nearly in the Lord's sevice, over thirty years and I am in this little house and a former driver in that mansion, how can this be? Saint Peter said, the reason is, every time that driver got into his truck, he got more people to pray in one day than you did in a month. |
