A man dies and
goes to heaven. St. Peter meets him at
the Pearly Gates and says,
'Here's how it
works. You need 100 points to make
it into heaven. You tell me all the good
things you've done, and I give you
a certain number of points for each
item, depending on how good it
was. When you reach 100 points, you get
in.'
'Okay,' the
man says,'I was married to the
same woman for 50 years and never
cheated on her, & loved her
deep in my heart.'
'That's
wonderful,' says St.Peter, 'that's
worth two points!'
'Two points!?' he
says. 'Well, I attended church all
my life and supported its ministry with
my tithe and
service..'
'Terrific!' say's
St.Peter.. 'That's certainly worth
a point.'
'One point!?!!' 'I
started a soup kitchen in my
city and worked in a shelter for
homeless veterans.'
'Fantastic, that's
good for two more points,' he says.
'Two
points!?!! 'Exasperated, the man cries.
'At this rate the only way I'll get into
heaven is by the grace of God.'
'Bingo! 100 points!
Come on in!'

All too often, we
forget about God's Grace.
We often try
to fix problems with WD-40 or Duct
Tape.
God did it with
3 nails.
AMEN... IN GOD WE
TRUST
