The Mansion


A bus driver and a minister were standing in line to get into heaven.

The bus driver approached the gate and St. Peter said, "Welcome! I understand you were a bus driver - since I am in charge of housing, I believe I have found the perfect place for you. Do you see that mansion over there ? It's yours! "

The minister heard this and began to stand a little taller. He said to himself, if a bus driver gets a place like that, just think what I am going to get! The minister approached the gate and St.Peter said: "Welcome! I understand you were a MINISTER.

Do you see that shack in the valley?" The minister protested. "I was a MINISTER! I preached the gospel! I helped to teach people about GOD!

Why does that bus driver get a mansion and I get a shack?"

St.Peter replied: "Unfortunately, it seems that when you preached, people SLEPT.

But when the bus driver drove, people PRAYED!"
