A man is walking along a California beach deep in prayer. Suddenly, the sky clouds over and God's voice booms out, 'Because you have been faithful to me, I will grant you one wish.'
The man thinks for a while before answering, 'I would like you to build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over anytime I want.'
God replies...'Your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormity of the undertaking. It will require a huge amount of manpower and materials. Plus, the ecological impact could be huge. I could not perform such a feat for such a materialistic task. Take a little more time and try to think of something that is less materialistic and will honour and glorify me.'
The man considers this for a long time, before eventually answering, 'Lord, I wish I could understand my wife. How she feels inside, what she's thinking when she's silent. Why she cries, what she means when she says there's nothing wrong. Most of all, I want to know how I can make her truly happy.'
Says God......'SO, JUST HOW MANY LANES WILL YOU WANT ON THAT BRIDGE?!
