The Priest and the Bus Driver

A bus driver and a priest died and were standing at the door of
heaven. Peter looked at the bus driver and said, "Well done,
good and faithful servant. Enter and go live forever in that
large mansion overlooking the valley."


The priest, thought to himself, "Boy, if he gets that, what am I
going to get?" Peter then turned to him and said, "Well done,
enter and go live forever in that small cottage at the bottom of
the valley."


The priest then set foot down the valley feeling humbled and not
a little jealous. He then turned round and shouted to Peter,
"Hey, how come he, a bus driver, got a beautiful mansion and me,
a priest, only got a dinky little cottage at the bottom of the
valley?"


"Well, my son," Peter replied, "When you preached, folks fell
asleep, but when he drove a bus, folks prayed!"
