I hope this is cool to post!
A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer. All of a sudden
he said out loud, "Lord grant me one wish." Suddenly the sky clouded above
his head and in a booming voice the Lord said,
"Because you have been faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one
wish"
The man said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii, so I can drive over anytime I want
to."
The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the logistics
of that kind of of undertaking. The supports 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 more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would honor
and glorify me."
The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, "Lord, I have
been married and divorced four times. All of my wives said that I am
uncaring and insensitive. I wish that I could understand women. I want to
know how they feel inside, what they are thinking when they give
me the silent treatment, why they cry, what they mean when they say
"nothing"and how I can make a woman truly happy"
After a few minutes God said, "You want two lanes or four lanes on that
bridge?"
