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 to."
The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the logistics
of 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 wordly 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."
After a few minutes God said, "You want two or four lanes on that bridge?"
