a scene in heaven

the day came that the heavenly father presided over the time  man had to give acount of himself as to what he did  with his life....and the time came for two men to testify....one righteous and one wicked. and this is what happened.

first the wicked approached the heavenly father to give account of himself.....

the father said the time is now for you to give account of what you have done with the life i gave you , did u serve  me ?

the wicked said , well  father you see i um i um well father , i ......well .......i.......well u see, i had a wife and a job and children and bills and a home and a  mortgage and a car and a gym membership and a vacation rental in switzerland and a second home in aspen colorado, and a side business selling whiskey that was very profitable for me and it required alot of my time to keep it going , and also i had to look to my entertainment because my life was so stressful, i had a very expensive drug habit so i could maintain my mind, and also keep in mind sir i mean um heavenly father that children are very expensive when you factor in the yearly trips to disneyland and their ipods and weekly allowances, and the medical bills for prozac that me and the children are on and my wife then im sure you can understand why i did not have time to serve or worship or give praise while i was on the earth. and now that my time is up i pray you will forgive me and let me have all the benefits that the faithful of your children will recieve in your glorious kingdom. besides i heard your mercy is very great. i promise if u gve me another chance i will do my best to serve you all the days of my life.

the father answered and said

i gave you 85 years of life , i gave you good health and a good sane mind , a wife , children all of them in good health and sound of mind , i gave you the desires of your heart, a stable job, a stable living situation, financial security, a pension (two in fact) , i gave you a nice home and comfortable to live in, i gave u daily provisions and many dainties of life in which i allowed u to bless your soul, i gave you respectability in your community and respect amongst your peers. i allowed you to a life with very few vexations and abundant security. your life was relatively free of medical problems, diseases and psychological issues, i gave you long lasting employment and the ability to advance in your job. all these things i blessed you with and not one single day did you find time to praise and worship and serve me, you did not even find time that pray over the food i gave you that blessed your soul. and now you want me to bless you with my kingdom even tho you despised me while you had a chance to serve me. other then the lip service you gave me. are you out of your freakin mind???!!!!!! turn ye now and listen to the testimony of the prophets and the affliction they went through in my word the bible. did ye never read how  my servant stephen was stoned?, or how  my servant peter was hung upside down? did ye never read about the persecutions of my servant paul?? or how my servant john the baptist was beheaded? or what happened to my beloved son and the shame he endured and the horror of the cross?? they all served me in affliction and uncertainty and distress and oppression and great vexation on a daily basis and should i look the other way now for you because you see the judgement is real and damnation is real??!!

and then a man who was a "son of light" approaced and gave his testimony and said........

Father while i was on earth everyday i was vexed with the example of the wicked and the unbelief in the world so much so that i despaired of living in this reality. when i first understood that you are real , i then begin to set out to find you through much oppression , vexation , affliction from the world , from family, through friends, i tried my best to know nothing else but your kingdom and your word and your mercy while oftentimes having no place to live , alone, hungry in cold, heat , rain and snow, and pain of body i struggled to share your word and do your will in season and out. i had very few earthly possesions or friends or comforts of living while serving my time on earth. but my comfort was of little concern to me while i was on the earth, i cared not for entertainment, daintys of life or seeking my own pleasure. my only vexation while  i was on the earth  was my great lack of understanding of your word and the accomplishing of your will. and now i see that my time is up and i understand i am not worthy of the least of thy mercies i pray you might cover me in your mercy and have pity on your servant.

the father answered and said, from this day forward my dear child your vexations have ceased , your afflicted body has ceased never to be remembered again, your uncertainty of mind has forever vanished, your righteousness will endure for all eternity because you sought me and served me and did not faint, behold now the fater of those who do not have the testimony that you have just witnessed before me.
