An old preacher was dying. He sent a message for his IRS agent
and his
Lawyer (both church members), to come to his home.
When they arrived, they were ushered up to his bedroom. As they
entered
the room, the preacher held out his hands and motioned for them
to sit on
each side of the bed. The preacher grasped their hands, sighed
contentedly, smiled
and stared at the ceiling.
For a time, no one said anything. Both the IRS agent and Lawyer
were touched
and flattered that the old preacher would ask them to be with him
during his
final moment. They were also puzzled because the preacher had
never given
any indication that he particularly liked either one of them.
Finally, the Lawyer asked, "Preacher, why did you ask the two of
us to come?"
The old preacher mustered up some strength, then said weakly,"
Jesus died
between two thieves, and that's how I want to go, too."
I thought this was funny.
