For your consideration

 I was shocked, confused, bewildered
>>  As I entered Heaven's door,
> > Not by the beauty of it all,
> > Nor the lights or its decor.
> >
> > But it was the folks in Heaven
> > Who made me sputter and gasp--
> > The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
> > The alcoholics and the trash.
> >
> > There stood the kid from seventh grade
> > Who swiped my lunch money twice.
> > Next to him was my old neighbor
> > Who never said anything nice.
> >
> > Bob, who I always thought
> > Was rotting away in hell,
> > Was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
> > Looking incredibly well.
> >
> > I nudged Jesus, 'What's the deal?
> > I would love to hear Your take.
> > How'd all these sinners get up here?
> > God must've made a mistake.
> >
> > 'And why is everyone so quiet,
> > So somber - give me a clue.'
> > 'Hush, child,' He said,
> > 'they're all in shock.
> > No one thought they'd be seeing you.'
> >
> > JUDGE NOT!!

> > Remember...Just going to church doesn't make you a
> > Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.

> > Every saint has a PAST...
> > Every sinner has a FUTURE!
> > Now it's your turn... Share this poem.
> > Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil...
> > It has no point!
