A 54 year old woman had a heart attack and was taken to
the hospital. While on the operating table she had a near death experience.
Seeing God she asked 'Is my time up?'
God said, 'No, you have another 43 years, 2 months and
8 days to live.'
Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and
have a face-lift, liposuction, breast implants and a tummy tuck.
She even had someone come in and change her hair color and brighten her teeth!
Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.
After her last operation, she was released from the hospital.
While crossing the street on her way home, she was killed by an ambulance.
Arriving in front of God, she demanded, 'I thought you
said I had another 43 years? Why didn't you pull me from
out of the path of the ambulance?'
God replied:
'I didn't recognize you.'
Many times in many ways we always want to be like someone other than who we are. In reality God wants us to be who we are. He wants us to imitate his son Jesus Christ or the Saints and Mother Mary. We try to follow anything new, everything fashionable, everyone except the above persons. First let us ask the grace of God to be who we are as He created us and as He wants us to be.
