As the clock turns midnight, a man drives up in his 2016 Bugatti. He was feeling higher that a 7 ft. Basketball player. As he was 20 on pump 6, a poor man walked up to the rich man. He was old, and his skin smelled strong of weed and alcohol. " Excuse me kind sir, may I please borrow a single bill from you, nothing more, nothing less," said the poor man.
It was obvious this guy was on drugs, with his unstable, dazzled eyes.
" I don't have a dollar for you" the rich man says, as he puts his money in the gas machine.
Obviously, he had the cash. He just didn't want to feed his dirty habit of crack, or god knows what else. Without making eye contact, he got in his car, and turned it on. On the corner of his eyes, he saw the homeless bum staring at him. The rich man gets creeped out. Eventually, his stare is contagious, cause he finds himself staring BACK.
" Have you ever opened up Exodus 14? ' A humble man is all that we ever need' " said the homeless man.
The rich man is shocked that he threw the Bible into this conversation.
" I worked hard to get where I am. Maybe you should to" said the rich man.
At this point, the rich man is angry and frustrated. But not just the homeless man, but at him self. A humble man is all that we ever need? What the hell does THAT mean the rich man wondered. The bum chucked at him, like the was...listening to his thoughts. " Your potential is bitter sweet" said the homeless guy.
At this point, the rich man had ENOUGH. He got out of his car, and said
"Oh ya? Well go ask someone else for a dollar. Cause I ain't giving you anything. Every nickel is mine to keep. " said the rich man.
The homeless man, now looked concerned.
"Well, you haven't figured it out?" He asked.
The rich man said nothing.
" Your looking at the Messiah. The son of Jehovah. The higher power. The choir who spoke the word. The Holy Spirit. The nerve of Nazareth" he continued.
The rich man stood there, shocked, and still speechless. He is God?! I didn't give a dollar to GOD?! He thought to himself in awe. The homeless man put his hand on his shoulders in a fatherly way, and said " So I'll tell YOU how much a dollar cost: it cost you a spot in heaven."
