The Biker and God
The biker was riding along a California beach when
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 biker pulled over and said, "Build a
bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I want.
The Lord said, "Your request is 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!
It will nearly exhaust several natural resources.
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 something that would honor and glorify me.
The biker thought about it for a long time. Finally
he said, "Lord, I wish that I could understand my
wife. I want to know how she feels inside, what she's
thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why
she cries, what she means when she says nothing's
wrong, and how I can make a woman truly happy.
The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four on that bridge"?
