It's PERFORMANCE, and not the POSITION, that ultimately counts...

 
A Priest dies and is waiting in line at Heaven's Gates. Ahead of him is a guy, fashionably dressed, in dark sun glasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket & jeans.

God asks the guy : "Who are you ? I must check if you qualify to enter the Kingdom of Heaven or not ?

The guy replies: My name is Pandi, the tuk-tuk(auto) driver from Chennai.

God checks his record, smiles & says to Pandi : "Take this Silk robe & Gold scarf & enter the Kingdom of Heaven".

Now it is the priest's turn. He stands erect and speaks confidently: I am Pope's Assistant... Head Priest of the ...Church ... for the last 40 years.

God checks his record & says to the Priest : "Take this cotton robe & enter the Kingdom of Heaven".

'Just a minute,' says the surprised Priest. 'How come that foul-mouthed, rash driving auto driver gets a Silk robe & a Gold scarf, but me, a Priest, who's spent a lifetime of preaching your Name & goodness has to make do with a Cotton robe ?

"Results my friend, results !" shrugs God.

"While you preached, people SLEPT; but when He drove his auto - people really PRAYED !!!"

It's PERFORMANCE, and not the POSITION, that ultimately counts...
