-->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 TRIED to be
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." The Lord said,"Your request is very materialistic. Think of the
enormous challenges for that kind 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 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."
The Lord replied,"You want two lanes or four on that bridge?"
