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, "I wish you would build a bridge to Hawaii so I could 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, "Do you want lights on that bridge?"
Optical Illusions.
