RELIGIOUS GOLF
Added on: 28th Apr 2015
There was this preacher who was an avid golfer.
Every chance he could get,
he could be found on the golf course swinging away.
It was an obsession.
One Sunday was a picture perfect day for golfing.
The sun was shining, no clouds in the sky
and the temperature was just right.
The preacher was in a quandary as to what to do.
Play golf or give the Sunday service.
Shortly, the urge to play golf overcame him.
He called an assistant, told him he was sick
and asked the assistant to take care of
the Sunday church service for him.
He packed the car up and drove three hours
to a golf course where no one would recognize him.
Happily, he began to play the course.
An angel up above was watching the preacher
and was quite perturbed.
She went to God and said,
"Look at the preacher.
He should be punished for what he is doing."
God nodded in agreement.
The preacher teed up on the first hole.
He swung at the ball and hit a perfect drive,
straight as an arrow, four-hundred yards
right to the green,
where it gently rolled into the hole.
A picture perfect hole-in-one.
He was amazed and excited.
The angel was a little shocked.
He turned to God and said,
"Begging Your pardon, but I
thought you were going to punish him."
God smiled.
"I did. Just think about it... who can he tell?"
