Gold in Heaven
There once was a rich man was near death. He was very upset because he had worked so hard for his money and wanted to take it with him to heaven. So he began to pray that he might be able to take some of his wealth with him.
angel heard his pray and appeared. “Sorry, but you can’t take your wealth with you.” The man begged the angel to speak to God to see he might break the rules. The angel reappeared and informed the man that God had decided to allow him to take one suitcase with him. (excite), the man gathered his largest suitcase and filled it pure gold bars.
Afterward, he died and showed up in heaven to greet St. Peter. (see) the suitcase, St. Peter said, “Hold on, you can’t bring that in here!” The man explained to St. Peter that he had God’s (permit). St. Peter checked it out, came back and said, “You’re right. You are allowed one carry-on bag, but I’m supposed to check its contents letting it through."
St. Peter opened the suitcase to inspect the things that the man found too precious to leave behind and exclaimed, “You brought pavement? you can see, the great street of the city of heaven (make) of pure gold!”
