Voice Mail

If God had Voice Mail

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

Thank you for calling Heaven. Please select one of the following:
Press 1 for Requests
Press 2 for Thanksgiving
Press 3 for Complaints
Press 4 for all other inquiries

I am sorry, all of 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
For Jesus, press 2
For the Holy Spirit, press 3
If you would like to hear King David sing a Psalm while you are holding, press 4.

To find a loved one that has been assigned to Heaven, press 5, then enter his or her social security number, followed by the pound sign. If you get a negative response, please hang up and try area code 666.

For reservations at Heaven, please enter J-O-H-N followed by the numbers 3-1-6.

For answers for nagging questions about dinosaurs, the age of the earth, life on other planets, and where Noah's Ark is, please wait until you arrive.

We are sorry, but ... our computers show that you have already prayed once today. Please hang up and try again tomorrow. This office is closed for the weekend to observe a religious holiday.

We encourage you to please pray again on Monday after 9:30 AM. If you are calling after hours and need emergency assistance, please contact your local pastor. Thank you for calling Heaven...Your call is important to us
