God is just

 



"We once met a woman dressed in black, who was inconsolable and constantly crying. We approached her to find out why she was crying, but also to comfort her.

And what did we learn, you say?
Her sister had died and was buried without a priest.
There was no priest in the village and because it was winter and it was snowing, the priest from the other village could not come in time. So they kept her for three days and finally buried her, without priest or singer.
And it turned out afterwards, that the deceased woman had been blaming the priests all her life.
God is just! Because what a man sows, that is what he reaps!"
Dimitrios Panagopoulos
Lay Preacher (1916-1982)
