A man died and went to The Judgment. St. Peter met him at the Gates of Heavenand said, "Before you meet with God, I thought I should tell you—we've looked at
your life, and you really didn't do anything particularly good or bad. We're not
at all sure what to do with you. Can you tell us anything you did that can help
us make a decision?"
The newly arrived soul thought for a moment and replied, "Yeah, once I was
driving along and came upon a woman who was being harassed by a group of bikers.
So I pulled over, got out my tire iron, and went up to the leader of the bikers.
He was a big, muscular, hairy guy with tattoos all over his body and a ring
pierced through his nose. Well, I tore the nose ring out of his nose, and told
him he and his gang had better stop bothering the woman or they would have to
deal with me!"
"I'm impressed," St. Peter responded. "When did this happen?"
"About two minutes ago," came the reply.
May the risen Lord abundantly shower his blessings on us.
May he bless us with peace, joy and health of mind and body.
May the glory of his resurrection illumine our faces and our lives.
May we be richly blessed this Eastertide and forevermore. Amen.
