The Heavenly Marriage
By Mary F. Hladonik

There was a young couple, very much in love, who the night before they
were to be married, were both tragically killed in an automobile
accident. They  found themselves at the pearly gates of heaven being
escorted in by St. Peter.  After a couple of weeks in heaven, the
prospective groom took St. Peter aside and said, "St. Peter, my fiance
and I are very happy to be in heaven but we miss very much the
opportunity to have celebrated our wedding vows.  Is it possible for
people in heaven to get married?" St. Peter looked at him and said, "I'm
sorry, I've never heard of anyone in heaven wanting to get married.  I'm
afraid you'll have to talk to the Lord  God Almighty about that.  I can
get you an appointment for two weeks from Wednesday."
Come the appointed day, the couple were escorted by the guardian angels
into the presence of the Lord God Almighty, where they repeated the
request. The Lord looked at them solemnly and said, "I tell you what,
wait five years and if you still want to get married, come back and we
will talk about it again."
Well five years went by, and the couple still very much wanting to get
married, came back.  Again the Lord God Almighty said, "Please you must
wait another five years and then I will consider your request." Finally,
they come before the Lord God Almighty the third time, ten years after
their first request, and ask the Lord again.   This time the Lord
answered, "Yes, you may marry.  This Saturday at 2:00 p.m., we will have
a beautiful ceremony in the main chapel.  The reception will be on me!"
The wedding went beautifully, all the guests thought the bride was
beautiful.  Moses brought some flowers from the Nile River Delta and
Ghandi came wearing his finest hand-woven sari.
But, you guessed it, the couple was married but a few months when they
realized they had made a horrible mistake, they just couldn't stay
married to one another. So they made another appointment to see the Lord
God Almighty, this time to ask if they could get a divorce in heaven.
When the Lord heard their request, he looked at them and said, "Look, it
took us ten years to find a priest up here in heaven; do you have any
idea how long it will take to find a lawyer???!!!"
