Standing at the gates of heaven At the
end of the age when all
the believers were standing in
line waiting to get into heaven,
the angel Gabriel appeared and
said, “I want all the men to
form two lines. One line will be for the
men who were the true
heads of their households. The
other will be for the men who
were dominated by their
wives.” Gabriel continued, “And now
we need all of the women to
report to Mary and Martha on the
other side of the gate.” The women left
while the men
hurriedly formed two lines. The
line of men who were dominated
by their wives was seemingly
unending. The line of men who
were the true head of their household
had just one man
standing in it. Gabriel said to the first line,
“You men ought to be ashamed
of yourselves. You were
appointed to be the heads of
your households and you have
not fulfilled your purpose. Of all of you,
there is only one man
who obeyed.” Then Gabriel turned to the
lone
man and asked, “How did you
come to be in this line?” The man
sheepishly replied,
“My wife told me to stand
here.”
