Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a large
raging, violent river.
Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed: "God, please
give me the strength to cross the river."
Poof!.....God gave him big arms and strong legs and he was able to
swim across in about 2 hours, having almost drowned twice.
After witnessing that, the second man prayed: "God, please give me
strength and the tools to cross the river."
Poof!......God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and strong legs
and he was able to r ow across in about an hour after almost capsizing
once.
Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed:
"God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to
cross the river."
Poof!.....He was turned into a woman. She checked the map, hiked one
hundred yards up stream and walked across the bridge.
