Voice Mail

A spiritual thought for Sunday

Most of us have now learned to live with voice mail as a necessary part of our lives. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if God decided to install voice mail? Imagine praying and hearing the following voice mail:

Thank you for calling heaven.

For English press 1
For Spanish press 2
For all other languages, press 3

Please select one of the following options:
Press 1 for request
Press 2 for thanksgiving
Press 3 for complaints
Press 4 for all others

I am sorry, all our Angels and Saints are busy helping other
sinners right now. However, your prayer is important to us and
we will answer it in the order it was received. Please stay on
the line.

If you would like to speak to:
God, press 1
Jesus, press 2
Holy spirit, press 3

To find a loved one that has been assigned to heaven press 5,
then enter his social security number followed by the hash (#) sign.

If you receive a negative response, please hang up and dial area
code 666.

For reservations to heaven, please enter JOHN followed by the
numbers, 3:16.

For answers to nagging questions about dinosaurs, life and
other planets, please wait until you arrive in heaven for the
specifics.

Our computers show that you have already been prayed for
today, please hang up and call again tomorrow.

The office is now closed for the weekend to observe a religious
holiday.

If you are calling after hours and need emergency assistance,
please contact your local pastor.

Thank you and have a heavenly day.
