Across the River
One day three men were walking along and came upon a raging, violent
river.
They needed to get to the other side, but had no idea of how to do it.
The first man prayed to God saying, "Please God, give me the strength to
cross this river." Poof! God gave him big arms and strong legs, and he
was
able to swim across the river in about two hours.
Seeing this, the second man prayed to God saying, "Please God, give me
the strength and ability to cross this river." Poof ! God gave him a rowboat
and he was able to row across the river in about three hours.
The third man had seen how this worked out for the other two, so he also
prayed to God saying, "Please God, give me the strength, ability, and
intelligence to cross this river." And Poof! God turned him into a
woman.
He looked at the map, then walked across the bridge.
