A man walking along a Californiabeach was deep in prayer. He said out
loud "Lord, grant me one wish". All of a sudden the sky clouded over his
head and in a booming voice, the Lord said "because you have tried to be
faithful to me in all ways I will grant you one wish".
The man said "build a bridge to Hawaiiso I can drive over anytime I
want".
The Lord said "your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormous
challenges for that kind of undertaking, the support required to reach
the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! I can
do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things.
Take a little time and think of another wish, a wish you think that
would honour and glorify me".
The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said "Lord I wish
that I could understand women. I want to know how they feel inside, what
they are thinking when they give the silent treatment, why they cry,
what they mean when they say "nothing", and how I can make a woman truly
happy".
The Lord replied, "Do you want two or four lanes on that bridge?"
Have a nice day
