A Cruise He Could Afford

</I></I></I></I>

A man's wife had been nagging him about taking her on a cruise to Hawaii.

He had been to several travel agents to find a cruise he could afford, but they were all a bit beyond his finances at that moment.

Walking along a California beach he became deep in prayer.

All of a sudden, he said out loud, "Lord, grant me one wish." 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 my wife over anytime she wants to go."

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 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 lanes on that bridge?"
