“How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the Kingdom of God.” (Luke 10:23).
There is the story of an old man on his deathbed. His sons had gathered around him for his last moments. The old man lay as if asleep:
“We’d better start thinking about funeral arrangements,” said one son. “If we hire twenty limousines, it will cost a thousand dollars.”
“Why do we need so many limousines?” said another son. Fifteen should be enough and will cost a lot less.“
“All we need is four or five limousines — just for the family,” said the third son. Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes. “Listen boys,” he said, “if one of you will just
hand me my trousers and my shoes, I’ll walk to the cemetery.”
